The
Tempest is a play about magic and a wild deserted island in the middle of the
sea. Prospero, Duke of Milan, has been stranded by his enemies upon that island
with none for company save his three-year- old daughter, Miranda. Twelve years
they endured, while Miranda grew wise under her father's teaching and beautiful
as a rose; and Prospero studied his magic arts and gained great power.
This is
a tale of revenge and forgiveness, about freedom and true love, about a wise
magician, an angry monster, a grief-stricken king, a handsome prince, two
treacherous brothers and a beautiful maiden. |
Praise for The Tempest
Frank
Mack,
Managing Director, California Shakespeare Festival:
Kahle'sThe Tempest is an outstanding example of how to retain the complexity of
characters and brilliance of the language...while also making the work accessible
to young minds new to Shakespeare's infinite world. |
