A Noise Within (Pasadena, CA)
A Noise Within director Timothy Douglas transposes Shakespeare’s brilliant final work to the smoky, seductive world of 1920s Florida. Widely considered one of Shakespeare’s greatest works, The Tempest is a lyrical play that tells the story of Prospero, an exiled duke who lives as the master of an enchanted isle where fantastical creatures, mystery, music and romance abound. A shipwreck delivers Prospero’s enemies to the island, and the plot thickens when his beloved daughter falls for the enemy’s son. Gender politics take center stage in this production as Deborah Strang embodies Prospero in a commanding performance. Fiery and furious, this is a Tempest that shows just how seductive revolution can be.
