- **Event Name**: Love’s Labour’s Lost
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 17 Jul, 2026 at 07:30 pm (+00:00)
- **Event Description**: This Summer, see Shakespeare’s Love’s Labour’s Lost as you’ve never experienced it before, in this blazing, flamenco-inspired new production.

Passion, power, and poetry collide as four women arrive in Navarre on a diplomatic mission, testing the devotion of the King and his lords whose vows are undone by love, desire, and wit.

In her Globe Theatre directing debut, Associate Artist Indiana Lown-Collins (former Globe Resident Artist, JMK Award winner for The Solid Life of Sugar Water, Orange Tree Theatre) channels the warmth and vibrancy of her rural Spanish roots into this celebrated comedy, igniting it with the feeling and artistry of flamenco.

Step into a world of rhythm and fiery romantic tension, where joy and revelry mingle with longing, grief, and melancholy.

Rarely staged, Love’s Labour’s Lost is a raw, refreshingly human comedy that celebrates our desire for connection and dares to leave love unresolved.

 📍 Venue Description: Shakespeare’s Globe is one of London’s most iconic theatres—a painstakingly reconstructed version of the original 1599 Globe Theatre where many of William Shakespeare’s plays were first performed. Located on the south bank of the River Thames, Shakespeare’s Globe London offers a unique open-air theatre experience in the heart of the city, complete with standing "groundling" tickets and period-authentic productions.

Built just 230 metres from the original site, the Shakespeare’s Globe is a faithful recreation of a 16th-century playhouse, using traditional materials and building methods. With its thatched roof, oak frame, and open-air yard, it transports audiences back to the Elizabethan era—creating an unforgettable atmosphere for classics by Shakespeare and new writing alike.

### The History of Shakespeare's Globe
Shakespeare’s Globe was originally built in 1599 by Shakespeare’s acting company, the Lord Chamberlain’s Men. It was tragically destroyed by fire in 1613 during a performance of Henry VIII, quickly rebuilt in 1614, and eventually closed and demolished by 1644 under Puritan rule.

The modern Shakespeare’s Globe London owes its existence to the vision of American actor and director Sam Wanamaker, who founded the Shakespeare Globe Trust in 1970. Despite many setbacks, his dream became reality in 1997 when the Shakespeare’s Globe opened its doors with a production of Henry V, starring Mark Rylance. The theatre now stands as a testament to Wanamaker’s dedication to preserving Shakespearean heritage.
