By William Shakespeare
Directed by Tom Prewitt
Starring Christopher Henley as Prospero
Swept away by love and magic.
Shakespeare’s classic comedy—the only play he set in the New World—is filled with young love, dazzling magic, cross-cultural strife, and ultimately forgiveness. In Avant Bard’s offbeat update, The Tempest tells a story of refugees and exiles that asks, “How can we all get along on this island Earth?”
