Love's Labour's Lost by William Shakespeare

Directed by Gaye Poole

15 - 21 November, 2016

A King & his three best friends swear off women for three years. What will happen when a Princess & her three best friends comes to visit? Can the men possibly resist the women? Will the women ever accept the vows of foolish men?

Shakespeare’s seldom performed romcom takes us to the Kingdom of Navarre where the quest to be in love, & speak from your true heart is marked by flirting, fooling, hunting & composing love poems. Along the way expect some 'sudden breakings-out of mirth' and the longest word in English 'honorificabilitudinitatibus'.

Carving in Ice Theatre invites you to celebrate Shakespeare’s 400th anniversary in entrancing, romantic style with an evening of laughter, tears, gravity and joy.
