This winter, award-winning theatre maker Tim Crouch brings his unique, theatrical approach to Shakespeare’s The Tempest in the candlelit Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.
Prospero, Miranda, Caliban and Ariel. Four lost souls stranded on this island with no hope of escape.
As the years pass, they tell themselves a story. A story that is told over and over. A story of past wrongs. A story of desire and revenge. A story of a storm that will rescue and redeem them. A story that conjures other characters out of air, out of thin air. An imagined enchantment.
But will salvation ever really come?
Tim Crouch (I, Malvolio, Globe, An Oak Tree, Young Vic) directs Shakespeare’s tale of power, freedom and the magic of story.
