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.

“Bursting with energy and a laugh a minute…the most fun I’ve ever had at a Shakespeare production.”
