Themes from the original text which depict the wielding of power and attempts at forgiveness will be in conversation with the events of 2020 as Peter examines what it means to be a white male in America today.To escape confinement on his island, Prospero must forgive the brother who betrayed him, free the ones he used as slaves, and acknowledge his own darkness and weakness. Told through text, movement, and music, this piece delves into a classic text as a source for new performance.A Tempest Prayer will be performed live, and streamed online. In accordance with State of New Hampshire guidelines a limited audience capacity will be able to watch the performance live at our blackbox theatre. Audiences can also enjoy this powerful piece of theatre from the comfort of their own home through our live streaming platform.A Tempest Prayer is presented as part of SoloStage.
