About

Open Air Theatre – Shakespeare’s The Tempest performed by Illyria

Friday 9 August at 7pm (Gates open at 6pm – performance lasts approx 2hrs 10 mins including interval)

The Temple Enclosure, Wanstead Park, E11 2LT

In Shakespeare's The Tempest, the magician Prospero is marooned on an island with his daughter Miranda. With the assistance of a powerful air spirit he keeps in servitude, he conjures up a storm to shipwreck his enemies on the shore of the island. Inexorably they are driven towards the centre of the island to answer to Prospero – until Prospero learns that in spite of everything Miranda has met and fallen in love with Ferdinand, the son of his enemy. Which is greater – his thirst for revenge or his aptitude for forgiveness?
