Seattle Pacific University’s Theatre Department will present Love’s Labour’s Lost April 19-21 and April 26-28 in the McKinley Hall Theatre. Performances will be held at 7:30 p.m., with the exception of one matinee performance Saturday, April 28 at 2 p.m.
Under the direction of local guest director Carol Roscoe, Love’s Labour’s Lost is one of William Shakespeare’s earliest comedies, following the story of four best friends who swear off love, and vow to abstain from earthy pleasures for three years. They plan to devote all their time to academics, but their plans get foiled when a princess arrives to negotiate an old treaty. It is love at first sight – for some of them. Sparkling banter, outrageous disguises, singing and dancing follow as love labors to overcome high-minded resolve.
