For a limited theatrical run, join Tempest: a one-of-a-kind immersive theatre experience! Travel through time and space to enact an exciting story of love & revenge - with a little magic, of course!
Inspired by Shakespeare’s famed tale, join your intrepid guide Prospero in this intimate, interactive performance. In order to bring Prospero to life, the actor must enlist the help of the audience. The line between real and virtual, and truth and fiction, blur as audience members are "cast" as Prospero's spirits to realize an interactive, virtual version of the story.
