The Yale Shakespeare: The Winter's Tale tells the story of King Leontes and his wife, Queen Hermione, as they deal with the aftermath of a mysterious illness that has befallen their son, Polixenes. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that something darker is at work behind the illness and the tension between Leontes and Hermione reaches a boiling point.
