One of Shakespeare’s wordiest plays, in which language is not only the vehicle through which his characters come alive, but almost a character itself. Madison Shakespeare Company opts for a fast-paced adaptation of Love's Labour's Lost, set in our own time. King Ferdinand comes up with a strict self-improvement plan that does not allow for any contact with women. What could go wrong when the Princess of France and her ladies in waiting show up? Shows are at 6:30 p.m. on Friday and 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday outdoors at the Madison Country Day School amphitheater, 5606 River Road, Waunakee.
6:30 pm on 8/9 & 16 and 5 pm, 8/10-11 & 17-18, Madison Country Day School amphitheater.
media release: Madison Shakespeare Company presents Shakespeare's greatest boys-versus-girls, pinky-swear-to-the-death, ridiculously-accented comedy at the Madison Country Day School amphitheater for two rollicking weekends this summer, August 9-18. Directed by Annie Jay.
