Scenic City Shakespeare is a nonprofit company based in Chattanooga, TN. Featured projects include two annual Shakespeare in the Park productions. This seasons show is The Tempest!
Prospero uses magic to conjure a storm and torment the survivors of a shipwreck, including her own treacherous brother, Antonio, and the King of Naples, Alonso. Caliban, a creature born of the island plots to reclaim his birthright, but is thwarted by Prospero’s spirit-servant Ariel. The King’s young son Ferdinand, thought to be dead, falls in love with Prospero’s daughter Miranda.
TL;DR : A crew of men are shipwrecked on a magical island and tormented by a Witch and her mischievous henchmen.
