By William Shakespeare

Duration: 90 minutes

After our sell-out season of A Midsummer Night's Dream in March 2022, we are excited to be returning to Central Park with our new musical adaptation of Shakespeare’s final play The Tempest. This 90 minute escapade is filled with all the magic, music and mayhem that you have come to know and love from Melbourne Shakespeare Company and is guaranteed to entertain audiences young and old with its mirth, mystery and magic!  

On a distant island a man waits. Robbed of his position, power and wealth, his enemies have left him in isolation. But this is no ordinary man, and this is no ordinary island. Prospero is a magician, able to control the very elements and bend nature to his will. When a sail appears on the horizon, he reaches out across the ocean to the ship that carries the people  who wronged him. Creating a vast magical storm he wrecks the ship and washes his enemies up on the shore. When they wake, they find themselves lost on a fantastical island where nothing is as it seems.
