The Ithaca Shakespeare Company will perform Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale at the Kitchen Theatre March 7-16, 2025.
The Winter's Tale is one of Shakespeare's late masterpieces, blending comedy, tragedy, pastoral, and romance into a richly layered whole. A jealous king believes he has been betrayed by his wife and his oldest friend. His actions set off a chain of events that unfold over sixteen years and two countries. There is a trial, a striking moment of "magic,” music and dance, the voice of Time itself, and the most (in)famous stage direction in all of Shakespeare.
The Winter’s Tale will be performed March 7-8 and 12-15, 2025 at 7 pm, and March 9 and 16 at 2 pm. Tickets are $20-30 for regular performances and $15 for discount night on Wednesday, March 12. Seating is limited.
Tickets are available at https://ithacashakespeare.ludus.com/.

About the Instructor, Jan CorningJan received her certification from Ohra Studios in Bedford, NY in 2019 after practicing Yoga for ten years. She teaches a fitness based vinyasa flow at a level half. So, there is some challenge, but modifications are always offered. More advanced positions are rarely included in Jans class because she likes to keep the asanas available to everyone. She focusses on building strength, while increasing flexibility, and also focusing as always, on the breath. Her goal when teaching is to have the students feel as if they worked at something, and accomplished it!
