Stone Soup Shakespeare: Love's Labour's Lost

Saturday, September 20

6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Location: Shorewood Library Lawn

Stone Soup Shakespeare is returning to perform Love Labour's Lost. Join us for this family-friendly event featuring what is considered to be Shakespeare's most intellectually challenging comedy! 

 

When King Ferdinand of Navarre decides he's ready to study, he convinces his three best bros that they should all hole up for three years without distraction. That is, until a Princess and her posse show up. They are there on state business, but Cupid has other plans. The men quickly forget all vows and turn poet, promising love and courting in disguise. Flirtations turn to downright hysterics, before life interrupts the antics and both boys and girls must return to reality.

Stone Soup Shakespeare brings Love's Labour's Lost to life with the help of Barbie, Ken, music, and a few extra guests. This version even invites the audience to join a game of charades, if they desire, all to help Ferdinand and friends woo the ladies of France.

 

This event will take place on the Library Lawn, and all are advised to bring a lawn chair or blanket.

This program is generously funded by the Friends of the Shorewood Public Library.
