I have seen it classified as a Tragi-comedy or a Romance. Expect misfortune to occur in the first half of the story and for it to be undone by the end. Tragi-comedies earn their happy endings.
I saw this production earlier this evening at the RSC, I was blown away. The cast were superb and Alfred Enoch gave a masterful performance as Pericles. Go and see this before it's too late, you won't regret it.
Pericles needs more love! I can’t wait to see it.
Is this production getting a cinema broadcast?
One of Shakespeare's comedies I presume?
It was likely co-authored with George Wilkins
something sad happens in just about all of his comedies. and there's some funny lines in all of his tragedies

Looking forward to seeing Pericles in September.
