Ellerslie Theatrical Society, Auckland presents William Shakespeare's THE WINTER'S TALE, running now through June 16 at the Stables Theatre Ellerslie.

A jealous husband tears apart his own kingdom when he falsely accuses his wife of adultery with his childhood friend. In his foolishness and rage he loses his wife, his son, and his newborn. Time passes, the seasons change. Seeds are planted for reunion, redemption, and rebirth.

A magical tale exploring the cycles of human life, the destructive capacity of jealousy and the struggle for understanding, forgiveness and reconciliation. And a bear.

"A sad tale's best for winter: I have one of sprites and goblins."

Directed by Bruce Brown.

Playing 7th to 16th June 2012 at 8pm. Matinees Sunday 10th and Saturday 16th June at 2pm, No show Monday 11th June.
