Pericles

Royal Shakespeare Company’s Pericles

By William Shakespeare
Directed by Tamara Harvey

October 20 – December 7

Royal Shakespeare Company returns to Chicago for the first time in 30 years as part of a new, ongoing partnership with CST.

Direct from a run in the Swan Theatre at the company’s home in Stratford-upon-Avon! In her and Daniel Evans’ first season as the RSC’s co-artistic directors, Tamara Harvey stages a major new production of Shakespeare’s moving tale. This exclusive engagement marks CST’s 100th international production bringing the world’s great artists to Chicago.

When Prince Pericles solves a riddle set by a neighboring King, he knows the answer could get him killed. Fleeing for safety, he finds himself swept away on an epic voyage that will see him battle princes, marry his true love, and become a father. But this is also a journey of storms and shipwrecks, abduction and devastating loss. Adrift in an ocean of grief, will Pericles ever see his family again?
