‘The magic in The Tempest is real ... It contains a great many unanswered questions’ Margaret Atwood

A storm rages. Prospero and his daughter watch from their deserted island as a ship carrying the royal family is shipwrecked. Miraculously, all passengers survive. Schemes, misunderstandings, enchanting love, and magic follow as the travelers explore this mysterious place of spirits and monsters, discovering that all is not as it seems. Shakespeare's work, one of his true masterpieces, is full of wonders, music, and strange things, fully exploiting the power of language and the magic of theater.
