Dorie Theatre at The Complex (Los Angeles, CA)
Universally hailed as a comic gem and dubbed “the best Shakespearean comedy not written by Shakespeare” by U.K. theatre mag Three Weeks, Ryan J-W Smith’s Love’s Labour’s Won played to packed houses at the prestigious Edinburgh Festival Fringe in the mid-2000s — winning an Arts Council England Award and being named Pick of the Fringe two years running — before crossing the pond and picking up top prizes at Hollywood Fringe Fest. A contemporary play written entirely in Elizabethan-style rhyming iambic verse (and chockfull of all the lust, jealousies, rivalries and humor that makes Shakespeare so much fun), Love’s Labour’s Won was indeed a labor of love for its writer, director and star, Ryan J-W Smith, who also directs and stars in this U.S. premiere at Hollywood’s Dorie Theatre. As a special treat, all audiences are treated to organic chocolate during the show.
