‘The Tempest’
Shakespeare's final and greatest triumph The Tempest is presented as a part of Chapterhouse Theatre Company's 2008-summer season of theatre in the gardens of the UK and Ireland. A play of romance and revenge on a magical island kingdom, where mischievous sprites play havoc with shipwrecked sailors and the most powerful exiled duke Prospero lives out his final exacting revenge. With the most magnificent verse in the English language combining comedy, romance and the most fantastic and fantastical characters of any play written, this promises to be one of the best entertainments of the summer.
Sunday 20th July, 7.30pm
