Kimmings propels the plot with meta-theatrical orchestrated chaos. She toys with tone and pace, which results in an engaging rhythm of information and contemplation. It couldn’t be further from being preachy: Kimmings doesn’t judge. She refuses to employ her own anxious attachment to capitalism as a weapon of comparison or opinion, nor does she use her own experience as a cautionary tale. The fable lies in the covert complexity of the storytelling.

Shobana Jeyasingh turns her sharp creative eye to Shakespeare's final play The Tempest this autumn. A tale of power lost and regained, the play is the starting point for Jeyasingh's dramatic and contemporary reckoning, We Caliban.
