Photo page 1 - Photo Page 2

~ click thumbnails for larger photo ~

Don Wooten introduces "The Tempest " and tells the audience to buy a shirt and some water. The storm rages and we can see the the spirits are causing it.
The spirits continue the storm under the direction of Ariel who is in the service of Prospero. Prospero and his daughter, Miranda, discuss the passing storm.
Prospero instructs Ariel as to the tasks ahead. Caliban, serves Prospero reluctantly. He is the son of a witch who once ruled the island.
Caliban is chastised for his lust for Miranda. Miranda meets the shipwrecked Ferdinand and they are smitten with each other.
Prospero will put the young man to task to make him fight for the love of Miranda. The shipwrecked king and his entourage including some that would plan against him.
Verbal exchanges show there is not love between some of these characters. Ariel intervenes to save the king from being murdered in his sleep.
