By William Shakespeare
Directed by Michael Bloom
Once considered a strangely discordant play, The Winter’s Tale has become an evergreen precisely because of its swerves—from tragedy to comedy, revenge to romance, psychological realism to fantasy. In this late Shakespeare play the irrational jealousy of a king toward his faithful wife unleashes a kaleidoscopic fable of revenge, loyalty, and redemption that now seems strikingly modern.
