With The Winter’s Tale, based on William Shakespeare’s tragicomedy of the same name, the British star choreographer Christopher Wheeldon has created a modern ballet about second chances that tells a tense story of the most fundamental human emotions surrounding jealousy, revenge, love and redemption:
"A story of forgiveness and transformation, ultimately proving what we are all capable of: cruelty and compassion, shades of light and shades of darkness", so Wheeldon.
