Directed by Michael Mendelson**

Pericles Wet is a contemporary and visceral reimagining of a poignant fable, inspired by William Shakespeare’s Pericles, Prince of Tyre.  When Pericles, a young prince, vies for the hand of a neighboring princess, he recognizes in her father’s riddle a coded secret.  Facing certain death if he reveals this dark secret, Pericles flees, abandoning Princess Hesperides, who sees in his departure the loss of her last hope.  While she comforts herself with empty curses, Pericles carries a burden of guilt with him as he travels the world and encounters adventures, silly, romantic and chilling.
