William Shakespeare's final full-length theatrical work, The Tempest, tells of a faraway island where magic, illusion and spirits run wild—where a usurped noble and his daughter, banished by betrayal, endure out of sight of society. When a magical tempest brings a royal ship to the island's shores, schemes for vengeance and justice unfold alongside fantastical happenings, new love, and just maybe…forgiveness.
