THE TEMPEST

The Tempest, Shakespeare’s final play, is also one of the most magical - out in nature on a mystical island, a usurped duke and his wild-raised daughter survive with the reluctant aid of a witch’s child and a spirit of the air. A chance encounter and a magical storm puts a chance for vengeance against the duke’s usurpers and a new life for the island-dwellers within reach. Those shipwrecked on the strange shore will face temptation, grief, and fantastical illusions as they fight to survive—Idle Muse is excited to share a new look at an old story, and a chance to explore old enmity, new love, and to decide what we leave behind for those who come after.
