Damariscotta, Maine - The Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) is continuing it’s collaboration with Picturehouse Entertainment in 2015 on ‘Live from Stratford-upon-Avon’, a programme to screen its productions live from Shakespeare’s hometown.  It screens locally at Damariscotta’s Lincoln Theater in downtown Damariscotta.

Long time collaborator with the RSC Christopher Luscombe, will direct one acting company in both Love’s Labour’s Lost and Love’s Labour’s Won (usually known as Much Ado About Nothing).

Love’s Labour’s Lost

Summer 1914. In order to dedicate themselves to a life of study, the King and his friends take an oath to avoid the company of women for three years. No sooner have they made their pledge than the Princess of France and her ladies-in-waiting arrive, presenting them with a severe test of resolve.

Shakespeare’s sparkling comedy delights in championing and then unravelling an unrealistic vow,
