The Wall Street Journal is raving about The Winter's Tale: "It wasn’t just the most gripping version of this play I have seen, but one of the finest Shakespeare stagings I have experienced." In the principal role of Leontes, "Graham Abbey's rage is unnerving to watch, and yet even writhing in the grip of Leontes’s delusion the actor makes every word carry with piercing clarity. This seemingly effortless, intelligent grasp of the language is the hallmark of the staging" (The Wall Street Journal).
