"The Winter's Tale" spans sixteen years during which a jealous king accuses his wife of infidelity and exiles his newborn daughter to Bohemia where she is raised by shepherds and, ultimately, falls in love with the Bohemian king's son. Audiences are sure to relish this story of love, loss, and forgiveness.
"The play is one of Shakespeare's last, and as such is blessed with a writer who really understood how to manipulate the form to achieve new heights of storytelling," shares Eva Breneman, Director of "The Winter's Tale."
