This bold new adaptation of The Tempest brings Shakespeare’s play directly into dialogue with contemporary society.

At its heart is an exiled king who discovers refuge on an island alive with enchantment — an island where storms crackle, spirits weave mischief, and visions shimmer into being. Prospero towers above the action on stilts, commanding the elements in a spectacle that is as striking visually as it is thematically. Yet the very magic he seeks to control ultimately challenges him to rethink power, freedom, and responsibility.

Performed by acclaimed professional touring troupe Come you Spirits, The Tempest demonstrates the transformative power of theatre and is a production not to be missed.

“Minimalized cast, delivers maximized SHAKESPEARE. Highly Recommended. Magnificently performed by 4 outstanding actors.” – Sydney Arts Guide
