The Winter's Tale by Willam Shakespeare blends comedy, tragedy, and romance into a beautiful story that has captured audiences for generations.

Today Cam Hager brings this play to life exploring the themes of jealousy, regret, and healing layered throughout the text.

YSSP presents The Winter's Tale: a story of love, betrayal, and loyalty. As misdirected concerns over infidelity arise, the royal family fractures and the king finds himself alone in the palace, haunted by guilt and grief. Sixteen years pass, and the audience is transported to the mountains of Bohemia, where a cross-class love affair unfolds between the royal prince and a shepherd’s daughter. As the scandal is unpacked by royals and peasants alike, questions of identity and parentage emerge, resolving in a delightful array of miracle and emotion. Heartfelt, engaging, and seasonally appropriate, this Shakespearean “tragicomedy” is not to be missed!
