The production is directed by Mickey Nugent and performed in the round in the Black Box Theatre.

The King of Navarre and his three companions forswear the company of women for three years to study and fast. But when the Princess of Aquitaine and her ladies show up, the men find ways to work around their oath. The women, however, do not allow themselves to be taken so easily and remain sophisticated, smart and classy. The clever script is filled with puns, rhymes and allusions.

Director Mickey Nugent notes, "With spring comes new buds, blossoms, energy and growth! I have to say, there is no better production than Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost to inspire these words! The script's youthful playfulness, along with an attractive, energizing cast brings to life a world of passion and lust! The beautiful garden set, designed for the ensemble, will no doubt help to create this boy meets girl passion that even Adam and Eve would give a thumbs up too!"

Tickets $18 with discounts available.
