The Winter’s Tale starts when the King of Sicilia, blinded by irrational jealousy, accuses his wife of being unfaithful with his best friend...who happens to be the King of Bohemia. The domestic dispute soon becomes political, initiating a chaotic chain of events that spans 16 years. In one of his last attempts to capture human desire in all its complexity, William Shakespeare skillfully explores the threat of unchecked emotion alongside the sublime potential of romantic love, resulting in a moving human comedy that transcends genre. What will happen when the snow starts to melt after such a long winter?
