Winter's Passage is a companion piece to Shakespeare's Winter's Tale. Winter's Passage imagines a history before Shakespeare's story began in which Hermione, Paulina, and Emilia studied science and magic together. The play shows the characters' changing relationships, philosophies, heartbreaks, and reconciliations. Winter's Passage explores a version of what might be happening before and between Shakespeare's scenes. Why does Leontes behave the way he does? Did Hermione die? What's going on in the 16 years that Time skips? What is the nature of love, friendship, forgiveness, knowledge, and hope? What happens after death, in the undiscovered country- and what if some travelers could return?
