Cymbeline at Kimball Theatre

Cymbeline follows Innogen, princess of ancient Britain, as she undergoes a series of adventures to rescue herself and her nation from a scheming stepmother, rediscover her long-lost family, and reunite with her fiancé - while navigating assassination attempts, war, and villains. We often affectionately describe it as “every Shakespeare play at once.”

One of Shakespeare’s four romances, sometimes classified as a tragicomedy, this play is a whirlwind of events — complete with slander, love, mistaken identity, a beheading, and a final “recognition scene to end all recognition scenes” that keeps audiences and actors alike gasping through to the final reunions. Cymbeline is a beloved play that is less frequently performed - so catch it when you can!
