Tempest

An old man is comatose and near death... the play of The Tempest is his last living second, a time in which his loss is assuaged and his enemies forgiven. With an enchanting mesh of mime, masking, movement, and the music of voice, the two actors conjure storms and apparitions, lay bare treasons and counterplot, and finally transport you to a ‘brave new world’ of love and reconciliation.

This audacious and exhilarating adaptation by Geoff Bullen, Shakespeare expert and specialist in new work for the stage, is accompanied by an extensive score commissioned from the internationally renowned, award-winning composer Tot Taylor and includes contributions from Stacey Kent, Alan Barnes, and Simon Warner.
