Catskill Mountain Shakespeare: The Tempest

In Shakespeare’s The Tempest, Director Jay Dunn uses his unique blend of dynamic ensemble movement and physical comedy to reinvent this timeless tale into an immersive, enchanting experience; where the actors themselves not only play multiple characters, but embody the maelstrom of elements, becoming vessels for the spirits of the island. The play begins with a sea storm and a shipwreck, following the struggles and successes of Prospero and his teenage daughter Miranda who live on an isolated island. Old foes and family rivals reunite and face the truth of the past, while young love blooms, and clowns run amok.
