Prospero, a magician and exiled Duke, is stranded on an enchanted island with his daughter Miranda, the spirit Ariel and the slave Caliban. He conjures up a storm that shipwrecks his enemies on the island’s shores. As Prospero and Ariel weave a magical web, surprising alliances form, murder plots are hatched, and romance blossoms between Miranda and the son of Prospero’s deepest foe. Meg Roe, who directed Bard’s 2008 Tempest, returns to deliver a re-imagined version of that season’s hit production.
