Love's Labour's Lost directed by Gregory Doran


The King of Navarre and the nobles of his court vow to study, fast, sleep little and see no ladies for three years. However, when the Princess of France and her ladies arrive in the kingdom, the Lords discover their resolve is more difficult to keep than they first imagined.
