It starts with an innocent riddle. But the answer is deadly and when Pericles uncovers the terrible truth he flees the land of Antioch and sets in motion an adventure full of love, peril and perseverance that reverberates across three nations. With a troupe of tumbling and swirling circus performers, Shakespeare in Clark Park brings to life Pericles’ windswept tale of shipwrecks, chivalry and family finally found.

It’s sadly common to see a bad, or at least disappointing, production of a good play. It’s far rarer to see an excellent production of a play that is, well, not so good. But with its ambitious staging and brilliant cast, Shakespeare in Clark Park has pulled off exactly that. And for the first time in my life, I actually enjoyed Pericles."
