"Marooned on a distant island with his daughter Miranda, Prospero has spent twelve years perfecting his magic arts. Now, with the help of the spirit Ariel, he raises a storm at sea, bringing within his grasp the enemies who robbed him of his dukedom. But what vengeance does he propose to take? This culminating masterpiece of Shakespeare<U+2019>s career pits the desire for revenge against the demands of love and asks if man is capable of creating a brave new world."--http://www.stratfordfestival.ca/OnStage/productions.aspx?id=6050&prodid=31468
