“Troilus and Cressida” features far more war and betrayal than love, but the Prenzie Players and Maggie Woolley, in her directing debut, have no trouble creating characters the audience can’t help but invest themselves in, despite their dirty deeds.
Shakespeare’s play is set seven years into the Trojan War, but before the infamous wooden horse is made.

Fall: The Winter's Tale by William Shakespeare
Leontes, King of Sicily, overcome by a sudden, maddening, unreasoning jealousy, sets out to destroy his marriage, family, and kingdom—all in the name of justice. One of the late great romances, an exploration of the worth and price of redemption, rich in love, music, and comedy with an unforgettable conclusion, The Winter's Tale is William Shakespeare at his most affecting and most profound.
directed by JC Luxton
performed at the Village Theatre, Davenport, IA
