a timeless romance

The Award-winning Agape Theater Company is known for its Shakespearean pieces. Agape performed A Midwinter's Night Dream, The Tempest (winning the 2019 Most Impressive Youth Theater Production Award), and Macbeth at Bard Fest. Agape strives for and delivers incredible talent, high production levels, mesmerizing choreography, and brilliant costuming. 


Agape’s actors make Shakespeare accessible and beautiful to audiences under the watchful eye of Dr. Gwen Adams and Dr. Kathy Phipps, Co- Directors of this production. 


The Winter's Tale, one of Shakespeare's lesser known plays, is a journey from jealousy and outrage to forgiveness and healing. In this Romance masterpiece, suffering and tyranny give way to compassion and forgiveness. 


"Many people see The Winter’s Tale as a problem play’ because as a Romance it shifts tone from a Tragedy in the first half of the show to a Comedy in the second half.," said the Co-Director Dr. Kathy Phipps. "I love this play because it shows the power of forgiveness and the mature happiness that comes from a greater understanding of human nature. In this powerful production, we realize that some rash actions can’t be undone, but through the gift of forgiveness, we see the restoration and redemption.” 


This production features three outstanding female roles played by Grace Streib (Queen Hermione), Paulina (Rebekah Barajas), and Perdita (Genna Sever). If King Leontes who mistrusted his faithful Queen, had listened to the loyal women in his life then disaster would have been averted. 


The Winter’s Tale begins as a tragedy and ends with restoration and redemption. Do not miss this Shakespearian gem!
