Shakespeare’s “Love’s Labour’s Lost” was recently performed at the Claire Trevor Theater, from Feb. 21-25. The director, Andrew Borba, made an ambitious attempt at incorporating Shakespearean prose in the style of a 1930s newsroom. The play’s original setting of Navarre is transformed into a newspaper publication, with King Ferdinand as the editor-in-chief.
Written by Emily Mann and directed by third-year MFA Directing candidate Melissa Livingston, “Mrs. Packard” tells the powerful true story of Elizabeth P.W. Packard’s relentless fight to be heard during a time when everything she stood for was being silenced.
