The Winter¹s Tale in High Definition Broadcast at Strand on January 3

ROCKLAND, Maine -  The Strand Theatre, 345 Main Street, will present a high definition broadcast of Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale, by the Kenneth Branagh Theatre Company Live, on Sunday, January 3 at 1pm.

Broadcast to cinemas from London’s Garrick Theatre, the Kenneth Branagh Theatre Company’s
season begins with The Winter’s Tale. Shakespeare's timeless tragicomedy of obsession and redemption is reimagined in a new production co-directed by Rob Ashford and Kenneth Branagh, following their triumphant staging of Macbeth in Manchester and Manhattan.

King Leontes appears to have everything: power, wealth, a loving family and friends. But sexual jealousy sets in motion a chain of events with tragic consequences.

The Winter’s Tale will star a remarkable group of actors, featuring Judi Dench as Paulina, alongside Tom Bateman (Florizel), Jessie Buckley (Perdita), Hadley Fraser (Polixenes), Miranda Raison (Hermione) and Kenneth Branagh as Leontes.
