New York, May 26, 2009 — The Collective Objective is proud to present the world premiere of Kyle Baxter and Jon Crefelds’s I Hate Love as part of the 10th annual Midtown International Theatre Festival, directed by Mark Duncan.

I Hate Love tells the story of Kira and Cruz, two young lovers about to get married! Hot shot pilot’s from Cruz’s Navy squadron are coming, but not everyone is happy about it, and what exactly is going on between the best man and Kira’s cousin? It’s all a little queer in this modern day, gender-bending interpolation of William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing.
