The King of Navarre asks three of his friends to join him for three years of study and austere living. Women will be forbidden to enter the palace grounds during this time. His friends Longaville and Dumaine quickly say "yes". Berowne is slower to agree: he does not want to give up women, good food, and sleep to get an education. But he finally agrees all sign an oath to study hard for three years. Then Berowne reminds the King that the Princess of France is coming to visit, to discuss who has the right to rule Aquitaine. The King and his friends welcome the Princess and her ladies, with their chaperone Boyet, but tell them they cannot stay in the palace because of the oath they have taken. They will have to stay in a tent in a field. The ladies find the men attractive but do not like their welcome. They mock the noblemen. When the men discover that each one has fallen in love, they decide to give up their sworn oath, and try to win the ladies. They plan to entertain the ladies with a play put on by two sets of comic characters: Don Armado and his servant Moth, Costard, and Jaquenetta, a dairymaid whom both Don Armado and Costard love; and a learned pair who love words: the local clergyman Sir Nathaniel and a school teacher, Mistrees Holofernes. Love does not go smoothly, and Costard mixes up the love letters he is asked to deliver from Don Armado to Jaquenetta, and from Berowne to Rosaline, just to add to the confusion. We won't tell you the end.

The fun includes Cole Porter and Irving Berlin songs and dances, similar to those used in the 2000 movie of this play starring Kenneth Branach. (We think will Shakespeare is smiling from heaven to see his talent showcased with these 20th century song and dance men!) You won't understand every word, although you will probably pick up the rhyme and rhythm. That's part of the fun, as Shakespeare plays with the language in so many ways with this delightful assortment of characters. Enjoy the show!
