Shakespeare’s Globe has announced the full cast and creative team for Love’s Labour’s Lost, which will run in the Globe Theatre from 17 July to 13 September 2026.
Directed by Globe Associate Artist Indiana Lown-Collins in her Globe directorial debut, the production reimagines Shakespeare’s rarely staged comedy of love and desire with a bold flamenco-inspired twist.
The cast includes Daniel Abbott, Suzanne Ahmet, Philip Arditti, Zannie Benfield, Ned Costello, Andro Crespo, Daniel Crossley, Jax Guerrero, Joshua Hill, Philip Labey, Jimena Larraguivel, Norah Lopez Holden, Bea Segura and Katy Stephens.
They will be joined by flamenco performers Pablo Egea and Anita La Maltesa, alongside singer Carlos Lobo Cordón, bringing the rhythms and spirit of flamenco to the production.
Director Indiana Lown-Collins said: “I’m thrilled to be collaborating with such an extraordinary cast and creative team to bring this impassioned story to life. This production brings together the rhythm and humanity of both Shakespeare and Flamenco, and to explore where those artistic languages meet within the unique space of the Wooden ‘O’, with this beautiful company, feels incredibly special.”
The creative team also includes Associate Director Nell Bailey, co-composers Michael McMahon and Adrian Sola, designer Katie Lias, movement director and choreographer Carmen Igarza, and voice and text by Adam Wallis.
Casting is by Becky Paris CDG, Head of Casting at Shakespeare’s Globe.
Love’s Labour’s Lost will play as part of the Globe’s 2026 summer season, with press night scheduled for 29 July.
