The Tempest
Written by William Shakespeare

After a violent storm, travelers wash ashore on a mysterious island where nothing is quite as it seems. Ruled by Prospero―a mother and sorcerer haunted by betrayal―the island becomes a place where old wounds resurface. As tensions rise between Prospero, her daughter and the brother who stole her future, magic, romance and mischief bloom.
