A
jealous king, a banished queen, a newborn royal daughter saved from
death and raised by a shepherd— a Shakespearean tragedy, right?
Wrong! Although it takes sixteen years to get there, this play has
a happy ending. Guest director Michael Barakiva is sponsored by a
grant through Pioneer Memorial Theatre and the R. Harold Burton
Foundation.
The University of
Utah Department of Theatre presents Shakespeare’s The Winter’s
Tale, November 7-11 and 15-18 in the Babcock Theatre. From
dreary Sicilia to lush Bohemia, from tragic beginning to miraculous
ending, the power of repentance brings THE WINTER'S TALE to its
joyous conclusion. Guest director Michael Barakiva directs the
Department’s annual senior show.
Show times are 7:30
pm Wednesday through Saturday, 7:00 pm Sunday, with a 2:00 pm
matinee on Saturday, November 17. A free panel discussion,
co-sponsored by the University’s International Studies Program, will
be offered at 6:00 pm on Friday, November 9 in the Babcock Theatre.
Panelists include Professors Brooke Hopkins and Jacqueline Osherow
from the U of U Department of English, and Professor Bruce Young
from BYU’s Department of English. The Babcock Theatre is located
downstairs from Pioneer Theatre Company, on the U of U campus.
Tickets are $12 general admission and $6 students, plus a small
handling fee, and can be purchased through Kingsbury Ticket Office
