The Tempest at Gallery Players

Twelve years back, Prospero, the rightful Duke of Milan, was thrown out of the country by his friends and family. He and his daughter, Miranda, were shipwrecked on a magical island whose spirits kept the two alive. Tonight, by some twist of fate, all of the people who wronged Prospero are unknowingly sailing safely past his island. However, Prosperos magic is powerful enough to wreck them on the island and put them through all kinds of turmoil and misadventures. But when his daughter falls in love with one of the shipwrecked princesses, Prosperos cold heart begins to thaw. Is love strong enough to conquer a hurt that deep? Will the magic of the island help heal Prosperos broken heart in time? Photo Credit: Rehearsal of The Tempest at Gallery Players, directed by James Dean Palmer. Running July 13-28, 2019.
