Such Stuff Productions are back on the Beaches, staging their highly regarded production of Shakespeare’s ‘The Tempest’ at Mona Vale’s new Performance Space.
Such Stuff’s mission is to make ‘the stuff that dreams are made on’. The local theatre company is renowned for its simple, yet innovative staging of Shakespeare’s great plays.
And ‘The Tempest’ is Shakespeare’s inspired swan song to his solo playwriting career.
In essence, it’s the tale of a tempest marooning shipwreck survivors on Prospero's island. They're a lost party of dreamers ensnared in Prospero's Dreaming. While he, the great conjurer and shaman, grapples with the magic and might of his powers, the trespassing castaways remain at his mercy. Will Prospero seek vengeance, or will he learn to love - and to allow all to return home?
