Summary

Our inaugural Problem Play Project production is a remarkable new vision of Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale in a bilingual world premiere adaptation! The Bard’s spellbinding tale of jealousy, prophecy, magic, and redemption, reworked by Hillsboro-native Carlos-Zenen Trujillo, transports the action away from Sicilia and Bohemia to Miami and Havana.

Bringing Latin-American magical realism to play in one of Shakespeare’s most compelling (and magical) tales, The Island In Winter is the first show in a three-year project that asks emerging playwrights of color to re-imagine Shakespeare’s Problem Plays with a diversity and equity lens.

funded through The Problem Play Project

supported by The Meyer Memorial Trust

“The Problem Play Project gives fresh, new voices the chance to examine the most compelling questions of our time – our community, our common humanity, and our need to connect with each other in deep and profound ways…”

– Scott Palmer, Founding Artistic Director
