The Winter's Tale

This is the story of King Leontes of Sicilia, who accuses his wife, Queen Hermione, of infidelity with his best friend, King Polixenes of Bohemia. The false accusations lead to tragic consequences. Over time, the play shifts to a redemptive tone, and the couple finding reconciliation and forgiveness in a joyous resolution.
