Photo Flash: The Secret Theatre Presents THE TEMPEST
Producer Stephanie Wilson & Artistic Director/Producer Richard Mazda in association with LIC-Artists presents an immersive production of The Tempest. We are performing our production in the 8000sq ft Plaxall Gallery in LIC.
The production features an Ariel on silks, a dance company, projections and a huge playing area where scenes will move around the space with the audience following the action. Directed by Owen Thompson our production has incorporated a dance company choreographed by the incredible Shoko Tamai of Ninja Ballet, projection design by Sadah Espii Proctor. The production also features a concurrent art exhibition, ...Dream Again curated by The Plaxall Gallery's Norma Homberg.
The Tempest is a play by William Shakespeare, probably written in 1610-1611, and thought to be one of the last plays that Shakespeare wrote alone. After the first scene, which takes place on a ship at sea during a tempest, the rest of the story is set on a remote island, where the sorcerer Prospero [Richard Mazda], a complex and contradictory character, lives with his daughter Miranda [Joy Donze], and his two servants - Caliban [Zachary C Clark, a savage monster figure, and Ariel, an airy spirit. The play contains music and songs that evoke the spirit of enchantment on the island.
The cast includes Richard Mazda [Richard III, Shylock] as Prospero, Joy Donze* as Miranda [Dear Diary, Portia] alongside Zachary C Clark's* Caliban [Edmund], with Keith Otani Howard [Stefano], Kevin Thiel [Ferdinand], Greg Warren [Sebastian], Karl O'Brian Williams* [Alonso], Noelia Antweiler* [Ariel], Kurt Kingsley* [Gonzalo], Mark Edward Lang* [Antonio], Joshua David Scarlett [Francisco/Boatswain], Landon Tate Boyle [Ship's Master/Adrian], and Josh Miccio [Trinculo]. Our dance company includes Darby Fulcher [Iris], Koyu Ugiya [Air], Kelly Vaghenas [Fire], Samantha Randolph [Fire], Sammy Goold [Evil/Dance Captain] & Emily Morrison [Evil], And Steph Seiden [Ceres/Water] with a special cameo as Sycorax by Shoko Tamai.
