• THE WINTER’S TALE 1990

    So successful was the residency at Walmer Castle, that the Project returned for a production of The Winter’s Tale. The play has two very different settings – Sicily and Bohemia. The walled garden of the castle was used for the Sicilian court and the audience were then taken on journey to the wilder edges of the gardens for the Bohemian coast. For the final act, the audience were led to the castle’s formal lawn to find a stage set for the characters’ reconciliation and a happy ending.

    DIRECTED & DESIGNED BY by Luke DIXON & Paul DART in collaboration with Noël GREIG, Glenn LEE and Jessica SELOUS
