The Tempest Shaken and Stirred August 7.30pm

August 7.30pm

Various locations and times £8/£11/£14 Freely adapted & directed by Bill Scott with original music

by Jim Carey.

Take a trip with Miracle into uncharted waters And find yourself wrecked on a treacherous shore, Beset by moon calves, puppy-headed monsters, And apes with foreheads villainous low.

Discover an enchanted island, Twangling with sweet airs and instruments, Humming with sucking bees and smelly macs, Ringing with the cries of enemies, Beating with old jealousies and young love, And all stirred up by a cross magician…

With the original text respectfully shaken and stirred, Bill Scott liberally applies Miracle’s offbeat and humorous style to this classic Shakespeare play. It’s a perfect reason to get together family and friends and enjoy a night under the stars!
