The Bard's Final Glorious Gift to the Theater
Oct 15 - Nov 07, 2021
Hanna Theatre, Playhouse Square
Run Time: 2 Hours and 20 Minutes (with intermission)
By William Shakespeare
Directed by Sara Bruner
Tempted by spirits, teased by sprites, and tormented by a monster, a shipwrecked queen and her party face the wrath of the betrayed conjurer, Prospero - a man they marooned on the enchanted island years ago.
But revenge yields to redemption in William Shakespeare’s final glorious gift to the world. Along the magically tempestuous journey, passions are unleashed, villainy is thwarted and a family is reunited in a comic and cathartic tale of romance and renewal.
