Photo Flash: LOVE IN BLOOM Opens This Weekend At Santa Monica Playhouse

Brush up your Shakespeare. Santa Monica Playhouse's bawdy musical comedy tribute to the rogues and wenches of the Bard, Love in Bloom, celebrates its 10th anniversary to insure that all's well that ends as you like it. Magic and mayhem, fops and fairies, mistaken identity, romance and humor abound in this tongue-firmly-in-cheek evening of theatre opening Saturday, October 26th

"As homage to Shakespeare, master of pantomime Marcel Marceau, Commedia dell'arte and conventions of classical theater in general, it soars. And by the time the lights fade to black, you will not be able to fight the feeling that all you need is love." UCLA Daily Bruin
