The Tempest
by William Shakespeare
Directed by Chris Coleman
Get swept away by Shakespeare’s fantastical tale of shipwreck, monsters, romance, and revenge.
Exiled from their home, the sorcerer Prospero and his daughter Miranda have survived for years on a remote island. When a ship carrying Prospero’s enemies sails into his conjured storm, he finally has a chance to take revenge—and maybe, to weave a brighter future for his daughter. Ensnaring everyone in his labyrinth of sorcery and misdirection, Prospero summons all his power to set his world right.
With its captivating blend of mystery and magic, The Tempest explores what it means to seek justice, reclaim identity, and choose forgiveness over fury. Lyrical and spellbinding, don’t miss Denver Center Theatre Company’s take on Shakespeare’s final masterpiece.
What makes [it] such a great play is its emotional depth and wisdom: the great beauty of its exploration of forgiveness, redemption and rebirth.”
– The New York Times
