The Tempest Unpacked
June 5 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
River’s Edge Theatre Co. presents a bold, imaginative re-telling of The Tempest with only two actors.
Two people are forced to leave their home. While they are packing and digging through old memories they rediscover a dusty old copy of their favorite play, The Tempest. Through use of found props, improvised costumes, and makeshift scenery magic ensues. Follow these characters through this epic story as they encounter the all too common themes of betrayal, displacement, revenge, and love. Part heartfelt family story, part imaginative storytelling explosion, this intimate, fast-paced, delightfully scrappy production reminds us that theatre’s greatest magic comes from people who dare to make something out of nothing.
Recommended for ages 8 and up.
