This new interpretation of Shakespeare’s The Tempest set in the American West of the 1800s features fairies, sorcery, revenge and, ultimately, redemption and family to make this story a classic, while the updated setting brings new concepts to the table. Equal parts hilarious and heartfelt, this show explores themes of patriarchy, justice, manifest destiny and humanity’s impact on nature.
