The Tempest

Prospero and his daughter have been wronged, set adrift in the Mediterranean by a usurping sibling and a rival king. They have lived on a deserted island for 12 years… well, almost deserted. When fate brings his enemies sailing past the island, Prospero decides to take matters into his own hands. What follows is a story of love, freedom and the consequences of heavy drinking.

A storm is about to descend…brave the elements and witness a company of four actors romping through this magical comedy. This fresh adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic stays entirely faithful to the original text, whilst offering a riotous departure from the norm.

Following last year’s critically acclaimed and award-nominated run at The Hope Theatre in London, The Tempest will sweep across the country accompanied by relentless energy, breakneck costume changes and sparkling comedy.

Running Time: 85 mins
