About This Show
Love’s Labour’s Lost, one of Shakespeare’s early romantic comedies, follows the complicated courtships of lords and ladies, clowns and wenches. Ferdinand, the King of Navarre and his lords take a vow “to war against their own affections” by spending their time studying, fasting and, most importantly, not seeing women. Almost immediately, this last condition is threatened with the arrival of the Princess of France accompanied by her three lady attendants. Wit and verbal dexterity are the essential tools for all in winning this struggle for love. Directed by James Lapan.
Julius Caesar, Shakespeare’s greatest Roman tragedy, is a sweeping epic portraying an empire torn by political ambition, intrigue, and the
conspiracy to assassinate the head of state. One man is a celebrated ruler
desperate for adoration and power, another, his friend, struggles to determine the honorable course of action for the good of the Republic. A
bitter civil war, a bloody murder, a severe storm, ghosts, and the constant
shift of moral opinion among the citizens add to the electricity and timeliness of Julius Caesar.
