At the end of The Winter’s Tale (1611), Shakespeare stages a theatrical miracle: a statue comes to life and a wife and mother is restored to her family.
This talk, by Dr Sarah Dustagheer, considers the play’s production at the Blackfriars playhouse, a small candlelit indoor hall that Shakespeare’s company used from 1609. And what, if anything, do recent productions of The Winter’s Tale at the Garrick Theatre (directed by Kenneth Branagh) and at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse (directed by Michael Longhurst) reveal about the wonder of this final scene?
