Live screening of the Tempest

In the New Year Theatre at the Mill will have a special treat for Shakespeare fans.

The venue will be screening The Tempest live from the Royal Shakespeare Company on Wednesday January 11, 2017.

On a distant island a man waits. Robbed of his position, power and wealth, his enemies have left him in isolation. But this is no ordinary man, and this no ordinary island.

Prospero is a magician, able to control the very elements and bend nature to his will.

When a sail appears on the horizon, he reaches out across the ocean to the ship that carries the men who wronged him.

Creating a vast magical storm he wrecks the ship and washes his enemies up on the shore.

When they wake they find themselves lost on a fantastical island where nothing is as it seems.
