The Public Theater's Free Shakespeare in the Park is continuing with THE WINTER’S TALE at The Delacorte Theater in Central Park. Veteran director Daniel Sullivan has returned to The Delacorte with his 12th production for Free Shakespeare in the Park. Thom Geier, Culture Sauce: The Winter’s Tale is a show full of tragedy, tyranny, and comedy, where characters get their comeuppance (but not always the ones most deserving of it). Bobby McGuire, 1 Minute Critic: Make no bones about it, for all its lush poetry, raucous comedy, and tearjerking moments, The Winter’s Tale is a strange play. Alexis Soloski, The New York Times: There’s pleasure, too, of a bittersweet kind, in the measured optimism that “The Winter’s Tale” offers and which so clearly appeals to Sullivan.
