Star-crossed lovers, a banished child, a loyal servant, a clever thief… We bring our season to a close with all of these in Shakespeare’s classic tale of jealousy, loss, love and reconciliation. Brilliantly juggling drama, comedy, romance and suspense, The Winter's Tale is filled with twists and turns, laughs, surprises, and fascinating characters (including one of the first feminist roles ever written) – all this, and Shakespeare’s glorious poetry, as well. It’s no wonder The Observer wrote that “this tragi-comi-romance is possibly Shakespeare's most emotionally complex and breathtakingly theatrical play.
