The Tempest Tickets - London
Award-winning writer, actor, theatre maker, and director Tim Crouch brings his unique, theatrical approach to Shakespeare’s The Tempest in the intimate candlelit setting of the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse this winter.
Miranda, Prospero, Caliban, and Ariel. Four lost souls who find themselves stranded on this island without hope of escape.
As the long years pass, they all tell themselves a story. This story is told again and again. It is a story of past wrongs. Of revenge and desire. A story of a powerful storm that will redeem and rescue them. And a story that conjures up other characters out of thin air. A collectively imagined enchantment.
But in reality, will salvation actually ever come?
Tim Crouch directs Shakespeare’s classic tale of freedom, power, and the magic of storytelling.
‘When I waked, I cried to dream again.’
Act III, scene 2
