The longest running theater tradition in the state of Hawaii continues with it’s 33rd year! This year, Hilo Community Players is proud to present Love’s Labour’s Lost, directed by Amy Jackson. Four young noblemen vow to devote themselves to study for 3 years foregoing all contact with women and other such pleasures, but 4 ladies from France arrive on the scene and hilarity ensues. Can the noblemen keep their oaths to study? Will they break their vows and study only the women? The actors are a wonderful mixture of veterans of the Hilo stage and new faces. You will be enchanted by the versification and amused by the bombast. There is fun for all family members. Evening performances are: Thursdays through Saturdays, July 1, 2, 3; 8, 9, 10; 15, 16, and 17 at 7:30 p.m. There are two Sunday matinees on July 4 and 11 at 2 p.m. KALAKAUA PARK – DOWNTOWN HILO As always, Shakespeare in the Park is offered as our gift to the Hilo Community, FREE OF CHARGE.
