The Tempest
Written by William Shakespeare
Directed by Darragh Kennan
Shakespeare’s story of an exiled ruler who uses magic to restore his daughter to power argues that the powerful must show mercy. First performed in 1611, The Tempest explores the consequences of European settlement in the New World. VRT’s version of this epic tale will take new twists and will tell the story in a way you may not expect.
