Directed by Alistair Ganley

A playful and accessible production of one of Shakespeare’s late masterpieces: a magical evening of tragedy averted and love redeemed.

At Leontes’ request, Hermione begs Polixenes to extend his stay. Observing her persuasive powers, Leontes sees a spark of affection between his wife and his friend. Consumed by jealousy, Leontes destroys his family and seeks to kill his friend. However, Time and Reason heal deep wounds and True Love’s patience triumphs over betrayal and despair.

Come see the Cygnets before they take The Winter's Tale on tour around the South West!
