The Winter’s Tale

Eastbourne’s prize-winning Butterfly Creek Theatre Troupe celebrates 25 years of Shakespeare with a Bard in the Yard outdoor production of his magical, romantic, tragi-comedy The Winter’s Tale.
A fairy tale of how love, laughter, music and dance can bring light to the darkest of times. The play that in 1611 reopened the London theatres after the plague will do the same for a new year of theatre in Eastbourne: “Purge all infection from our air”. For five nights only, celebrate the magic and joy of live performance with us! ‘Welcome hither – as is the spring to the earth.’
