The Tempest

January 17, 2018 @ 8:00 pm - 10:15 pm UTC-5

HELD OVER THROUGH FEB. 18!

On a distant island a woman waits. Robbed of her position, power, and wealth her enemies have left her in isolation. But this is no ordinary woman, nor an ordinary island. She is a magician, able to control the very elements and bend nature to her will. When the vessel carrying those who wronged her appears in the distance, she creates a vast magical storm to bring them to her – then they awake finding themselves in a place where nothing is as it seems.

THEATRE TAMPA BAY RECOMMENDED!

“The evening belongs to Roxanne Fay as Prospero … Her performance crackles with the kind of power her character wields … this busy tribute to the world’s greatest playwright is showing us again why he has never been equalled.” – Tampa Bay Times

“Giles Davies and Katrina Stevenson [are] the two chief reasons you should see Jobsite’s production of The Tempest, Shakespeare’s story of revenge, love and magic … As Caliban the island creature, Davies was brilliant … He offers a magnificent, colorful performance, and he’s wholly inside the body, mind and spirit of Caliban. Stevenson, too, delivers an impressive physical (and otherwise) performance as Ariel. She spends most of her time wrapped in silks above the simple raked stage … As Ariel, she’s a delight and as a physical performer, she makes you believe she’s magical with what she gets her body to do.” – Creative Loafing Tampa.
