The Winter's Tale is sometimes called a ‘problem play’ and sometimes called a ‘comedy’ or a ‘pastoral romance’; it is a beautiful, strange, tragic, whimsical play and one that defies easy description.
Join Shakespeare fangirl, scholar and theatre maker Leah Adcock-Starr for a close reading of the play. She will provide a thorough examination of the play's challenging and compelling characters. Explore the play’s big themes: jealousy, friendship, love, redemption and grace.
Whether you are new to Shakespeare or a long-time lover of the Bard, these sessions are for you!
