We are delighted to offer a visit to see a matinee performance (starts 1.15pm) of The Winter’s Tale at the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford upon Avon.

 As it is not performed as often as some of Shakespeare’s other plays, this is a great opportunity to see it at the RSC.  

‘It is an heretic that makes the fire, not she which burns in't’

Even in the darkest of winters, redemption may be found.  Unjustly accused of infidelity, Hermione is rejected by her jealous husband, brutally separated from her daughter and her young son dies. Years later, fate offers reconciliation in the most magical of circumstances.

It is an enigmatic story of love, loss and rebirth, directed by Yael Farber, making her RSC debut following her acclaimed productions of King Lear and Macbeth for the Almeida Theatre.

We have reserved stall seats near the stage (at favourable discount) and those who wish to see the play must have signed up and paid by 25th March as the seats are only held for us by the RSC Box Office until then.

There will also be spaces on the coach for those wishing to just spend the day sightseeing and shopping in Stratford upon Avon.
