About the Show

A modern re-telling of William Shakespeare’s "The Tempest" from Adam Bertocci, "Miranda from Stormville" asks: how do we escape circumstances we can’t avoid? How do we continue on when hope is lost?

Just miles outside New York City, Miranda’s rural America may as well be a stranded island: is she destined to only experience life through the books she constantly devours? Or does her ailing father, with his self-professed powers, and a caretaker with a flair for the dramatic have bigger plans in store?

Critic Reviews (1)

“Bertocci's new reimagining of William Shakespeare's ‘The Tempest’...A compassionate, funny, and invigorating production that will appeal as much to die-hard fans of the upstart crow as to those who vaguely recall reading him in high school...Magical realism would aptly describe ‘Miranda from Stormville’ itself, a play which is mostly but ambiguously realistic...The short scenes and excellent use of space make for a lively pace. The cast delivers fantastic performances.”
