PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNGEN KURZBESCHREIBUNG Christopher Luscombe directs Shakespeare's great pair of romantic comedies, Love's Labour's Lost and Love's Labour's Won – the latter usually known as Much Ado About Nothing. He places them either side of the First World War, with stage designs evoking the magical setting of Charlecote Park, a few miles from Stratford-upon-Avon. Love's Labour's Lost conjures up the carefree elegance of a pre-war Edwardian summer; in post-war Love's Labour's Won the world has changed forever, the roaring ’20s just around the corner. One company of actors performs in both productions, with Edward Bennett and Michelle Terry as the sparring couple in each. Press Reviews "This is the most blissfully entertaining and emotionally involving RSC offering I’ve seen in ages. " (The Daily Telegraph) "This is, in its entirety, an endeavour that sings: poignant, impassioned and gorgeous ... Brilliantly comic…extraordinarily powerful" (The Times) "A marvel…immaculately co-ordinated." (The Daily Mail) "These productions are a joy…Edward Bennett and Michelle Terry make a splendid pairing." (The Sunday Times) "This imaginative pairing makes total sense. If love is thwarted in the first play, it is triumphantly fulfilled in the second."
