Wild worlds, fractured loves, and second chances.

When a king’s obsessive jealousy leads to a devastating series of acts, the journey toward healing must begin, led by time, truth, and the hope of forgiveness.

From the shadowy dystopia of Sicilia to the untamed beauty of Bohemia, immerse yourself in Shakespeare’s most mysterious play.

Directed by Yaël Farber (King Lear, Olivier-nominated Macbeth for the Almeida), and featuring double Olivier and Tony Award-winner Bertie Carvel (Matilda the Musical), Madeline Appiah, Aïcha Kossoko, John Light, and Kathryn Hunter (Black Doves, Andor) this reimagined tale is brought vividly to life through Soutra Gilmour’s elemental set and costume design, and striking lighting design by Tim Lutkin.

In a time of darkness and uncertainty, hope endures this summer in The Winter’s Tale.
