THE TEMPEST
By William Shakespeare
Directed by West Hyler

August 16-28, 2016

Patricia George Decio Theatre
DeBartolo Performing Arts Center

"O brave new world
That has such people in't!"

Experience Shakespeare's magical tale of shipwreck and salvation

live on stage with the Notre Dame Shakespeare Festival's

Professional Company. See Prospero's enchanted isle spring to life

through modern circus arts including aerial acrobatics and wind illusions.

Set during the golden age of sea exploration, THE TEMPEST

investigates human freedom: our desire to achieve it, our struggle

to preserve it, and ultimately, our forgiveness of those who have

taken our freedom away.

Featuring professional artists from around the world, THE TEMPEST is

part of the Notre Dame Shakespeare Festival's 2016 "Shakespeare's Last Words"

season. Directed by Cirque du Soleil's West Hyler.
