A journey through the searing pain of loss and the soaring triumph of reunion, as love and family prove to be the anchors in the stormiest of seas.

Shakespeare's Pericles is a sweeping, generation-spanning epic that follows the life of Prince Pericles as he endures a series of extraordinary trials and bad luck to rival Job’s, navigating a tumultuous journey marked by riddles, assassination attempts, famine, shipwrecks, abductions, and heartbreaking loss. The play explores profound themes of family, grief, redemption, and fate, as Pericles faces unimaginable circumstances and an array of outrageous characters—a Greek chorus, a goddess, fishermen, knights, an incestuous king, and even pirates! Through heartbreak and divine interventions, Pericles’s journey is a powerful tale of separation and reunion, where love and family emerge as anchors in the stormiest of seas, offering hope against all odds.
