EDMOND —
That “wimpled, whining, purblind, wayward boy, that senior-junior, giant-dwarf, Dan Cupid,” as Shakespeare called him, will be visiting seven Metropolitan Library System locations when MLS presents the Reduxion Theatre’s production of “Love’s Labour’s Lost” in March and April.
The play is about the King of Navarre who, with three of his friends, decides to devote three years to study and to ignore all women during that time. For more information about this or any Metropolitan Library System program, visit www.metrolibrary.org.
All performances are free and will be on Saturday afternoons. The Edmond Library event will be at 1 p.m. March 16 at the library, 10 S. Boulevard. Call 341-9282 for more information.
