Prospero, the exiled Duke of Milan, has spent the past twelve years marooned on an enchanted island perfecting the magical arts. His only companions have been his daughter, a spirit called Ariel, and the native islander he has enslaved. Still hungry for revenge against those who betrayed him, the powerful sorcerer summons a storm that shipwrecks his enemies on the island's shore, leaving them poised for a final confrontation. In what is widely believed to be his final play, Shakespeare conjures his own tempest of spirits, villains, drunks, and nobility to tell a powerful and comedic story of revenge, forgiveness, and love.
This event is free and open to the public. Bring a blanket, picnic basket, and your friends and family, and enjoy some live theatre under the open sky!
