Dominick Dromgoole's acclaimed version of this Shakespeare comedy returns for a second summer at the Globe. Performed in Renaissance costume with authentic live music, this is a very close facsimile of what audience's would have experienced when a young Shakespeare first began to astound audiences with his grip on language... and comedy.
The King of Navarre and his courtiers have forsworn all earthly pleasures and even kicked women out of the court. But when the Princess of France and her entourage arrive, they quickly begin tearing up their own rule book.
What astounded critics when this show opened was the way in which Dromgoole's cast stick absolutely to the original text, but still regularly break the audience into hysterics. Shakespearean comedy is famously hard to preserve, but this is a triumphant example.
