The Tempest

William Shakespeare

1908

British Literature, Plays/Films/Dramas

The opening crash of a ship against rocks. A storm that feels like the sea itself has been summoned by unseen hands. This is how Shakespeare bids farewell to the stage, conjuring a world where magic and governance blur, where a father and daughter alone on a remote island hold the fates of kings and sailors in their hands. Prospero was once Duke of Milan, until his brother Antonio conspired with the King of Naples to steal his dukedom and set him adrift. Now, twelve years later, he rules his island with sorcery. With his spirit servant Ariel and his deformed servant Caliban, he has shaped a world of tempests and illusions. But when his enemies wash ashore, Prospero faces the ultimate question: revenge or forgiveness? The answer will determine whether his daughter Miranda ever knows a world beyond this enchanted shore.
