Event Series: The Tempest

Class Act Theatre: The Tempest

5 September @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm AEST

An unexpected ion storm causes a spaceship from the planet Milan to crash on a barren asteroid.

Here the wrecked crew find a subjugated alien monster, a freedom-seeking computer controlled android and Prospero, a bitter relic from their past, marooned there for twelve years and thirsting for revenge.

Shakespeare’s play is re-imagined in the universe of Star Trek, Star Wars or Lost in Space. Can Prospero find a path to regain lost glory? Or will the alien Caliban take control of the kingdom that was once theirs by violence? And can Prospero’s daughter, Miranda, come to terms with meeting other humans for the first time, then falling in love with the son of her parent’s enemy?

After thirty years working in Theatre both mainstream and in schools, Class Act Theatre now faces its final curtain. What better way to depart than with a production that is possibly Shakespeare’s own farewell to the stage. Come and say goodbye with us!

Live long and Prospero!
