Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale

The Winter’s Tale by William Shakespeare centers on King Leontes of Sicily, who becomes irrationally jealous and falsely accuses his best friend and his wife, Hermione, of infidelity. Tragedy immediately befalls his family and the kingdom. Sixteen years later, Leontes’ lost daughter Perdita falls in love with Florizel, the Prince of Bohemia. Leontes repents, and a “miracle” is revealed leading to reconciliation and renewed relationships. Come enjoy this UW School of Drama production with UWRA friends and colleagues!
