THE TEMPEST

Design © Shelley Healy & Lesley Cowland

Our Summer Shakespeare returned to Inn on the Park, St Albans in June 2019, and this year it was The Tempest – with a space-age twist!

Exiled Prospero plots to take her revenge on her wicked brother, Antonio, through magical spells and mystical spirits. But her monster servant, Caliban, has her own plans to kill her master, though her drunken companions are probably not the greatest would-be assassins. Whose plot will succeed and will anyone escape the desolate planet?

Filled with drama, magic, music and monsters, this well-known play is a great introduction to Shakespeare for youngsters, and The Inn on the Park once again provided a delicious special menu and fully licensed bar every night.
