Love's Labour's Lost at Chicago Women's Park and Gardens

One of William Shakespeare’s early comedies performed free, outdoors, in six Chicago parks. It follows the King of Navarre and his three companions as they attempt to swear off the company of women for three years in order to focus on study and fasting. Their subsequent infatuation with the Princess of France and her ladies leads them to break their oath. The play draws on themes of youthful love and desire, reckoning and rationalization, and reality versus fantasy.
