This event has passed.
Take four dashing young men.
Add a vow of celibacy.
Throw in a handful of beautiful young women… and wait for the sparks to fly!
Northern Broadsides celebrates its 20th anniversary year with a delicious comedy that will entertain and delight. Romantic, mischievous and filled with youthful exuberance, Love’s Labour’s Lost fizzes likes bubbles in a champagne glass.
Barrie Rutter directs a charismatic cast of 17 multi-talented Northern actors who will literally fill the stage in this fast-paced battle of the sexes. In true Broadsides’ style there’ll be rousing song and dance, scintillating performances, jaw-dropping comic timing and hilarious ‘steal-the-show’ scenes.
'The best Shakespeare around.' The Independent on Sunday
'Northern Broadsides can bring Shakespeare to life as gripping, accessible theatre for today simply by making the words sing.' The Guardian
