About Love’s Labour’s Lost
In this electrifying re‑telling, four brilliant women arrive in Navarre on official business, only to send the King and his devoted lords spiralling into a whirlwind of wit, attraction and wildly conflicting promises.
Director Indiana Lown‑Collins makes her Globe Theatre directing debut with a production pulsing with the colour and heartbeat of her Spanish heritage. Draped in the passion of flamenco — its rhythm, its tension, its joy — the play becomes a living dance of emotion where poetry sparks, tempers flare and love refuses to behave.
This is a world where:
- Rhythm fuels every moment, from flirtation to frustration
- Romance crackles with heat, humour and irresistible unpredictability
- Harmony and heartbreak intertwine, giving the comedy a beating human heart
- Joy and melancholy collide, leaving space for laughter and longing in equal measure
Love’s Labour’s Lost is rarely staged, but here it bursts into life as a raw, bright and beautifully imperfect celebration of human connection. This version doesn’t tie love neatly in a bow — instead, it embraces the mess, the yearning, and the magic that comes with letting desire rewrite the rules.
