Shakespeare's Globe Theatre 11/13/2009 Shakespeare's Globe Theatre Friday, November 13, 2009 @ 8:00 PM, The Granada Santa Barbara Debut! Love’s Labour’s Lost “The Globe…an instant hit with both the crowds and the critics.” npr.org “Sends its audience out in a mood of high exultation.” The Observer, London Shakespeare’s boisterous send-up of all those who try to turn their back on life is a mighty display of every weapon in the youthful playwright’s comic arsenal, from excruciating cross-purposes and impersonations, to drunkenness, bust-ups, and pratfalls. It is a joyful banquet of language, groaning with puns, rhymes, bizarre syntax, grotesque coinages, and parodies. This heady combination receives royal treatment from the famed Globe – the world’s pre-eminent exponent of the Bard’s immortal works. Directed by artistic director Dominic Dromgoole, the Globe’s production “mixes bare-faced cheek with bare-cheeked bottoms” (The Guardian, London), employing Renaissance staging, costumes, and live music. General public $33.00 - $58.00 UCSB Students $19.00 Includes facility fee For tickets or more information: www.artsandlectures.ucsb.edu/ 805.893.3535
