Pericles

Lost at sea, found by fate. When Prince Pericles uncovers a deadly royal secret, he flees for his life—only to be cast into a world of storms, shipwrecks, riddles, and loss. Told by people escaping a storm, this re-conceptualization of Shakespeare’s Pericles in Ellen McLaughlin’s Play On translation embraces movement and music to tell a thrilling tale of adventure, survival, and the power of love against all odds, celebrating the resilience of the human spirit even in the darkest of times.
