At the Delacorte in Central Park
July 23-August 18, the Public Theater presents a new musical based on
Shakespeare's madcap celebration of true love and coming of age. Most of
the seats are free.

From the producers:
Romance,
revelry and enchanting music ignite in this contemporary yet lovingly
faithful adaptation. The King and his best buds decide at their
five-year college reunion to swear off the joys of women. But when four
cute, clever girls from their past show up, they’re forced to reconsider
all of that nonsense! Smart, sexy, outrageous, and irreverent, LOVE'S
LABOUR'S LOST is an unexpected evening of song, sonnets and Shakespeare.
This
production reunites the team responsible for the Public's hit musical
"Bloody, Bloody Andrew Jackson" - Obie-winning composer Michael Friedman
and two-time Tony-nominated director Alex Timbers - and continues The
Public's long tradition of premiering new musicals in NYC's most magical
summer setting
What is the Public Theater? Founded in 1954 by the legendary showman Joseph Papp,
