Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey presents
A Winter’s Tale
The first of
Shakespeare's great mystical romances, The Winter's Tale transports audiences
through a fanciful and sometimes dark 16-year journey. From the seeds of
unfounded jealousy, two kingdoms become entangled in a web of paranoia, insinuation,
and mistrust. From the dramatic accusations in the high court of Sicilia, to
the raucous and jovial Bohemian sheep-shearing festival, to the revelatory
final scene, The Winter's Tale celebrates the triumph of love, nobility, and
all things good, and ends with a promise of rejuvenation, redemption and hope.
Co-Sponsored by the
Long Valley Womens club.
