The Winter’s Tale is one of Shakespeare’s most diverse and divisive plays, exploring themes of faith, trust, family, love, friendship, fidelity, and maybe most importantly, time. A tragedy of kings and queens in the first half crashes directly into a floral comedy with shepherds, shepherdesses, and clowns in the second. The link between these two worlds seems to be nothing but a “wide gap of time,” but discoveries are made and truths are revealed. A cast of only 12 students populates this world of over 25 characters, most actors taking on at least two different roles throughout.
