Once upon a time, love and friendship ruled the lands of Sicilia and Bohemia. Until King Leontes’ jealousy sets off a series of fantastical events that consumes his wife, Hermione, and dear friend, Bohemia’s King Polixenes. Sixteen years later, a young shepherdess, Perdita, has the power to fulfill the oracle’s prophecy, reunite a family, and restore the land to peace and harmony in Shakespeare’s romantic tale of renewal, redemption, and the transformative power of time. *Performances take place at various parks around the Seattle area--be sure to check the location for each performance.
