"Love's Labour's Lost" takes place in the kingdom of Navarre, where young King Ferdinand calls on his courtiers to join him in a pledge to undertake a strict regimen of study and celibacy. The court nobles, after reluctantly accepting, are sorely tested in their resolve - as is the king - by the arrival of the princess of France and her ladies-in-waiting.
As each man seeks a way around his vow to forego fleshly desire, and the Princess and her ladies see through the men's clumsy attempts at wooing, the stage is set for some romanric hi-jinks. They set out to prove that as the pen may be mightier than the sword, neither is a match for a woman's sharp tongue. Disguises, false identities, and a masked ball complicate the situation, leaving the king and his men scrambling to recover some semblence of dignity and possibly the love of the women they pursue.
The cast includes David Alvarado, Beth Bevins, John Butterworth, Chuck Francis, Ashlee Holm, Elizabeth Jelinek, Luke Miller, Carly Moulton, Ian O'Connor, Dominic Parry, Jim Robinson, Matt Schwabauer, Jessie Sorrells, Joseph Stiliano, David Sullivan, and Bianca Tocco.
