About the Show

Wildcard Theatre's musical adaptation of Shakespeare's final play.

Robbed of his power and wealth, Prospero - a powerful magician - is stranded on an island. When he sees a boat carrying the men who wronged him on the horizon, he creates a magical storm that wrecks their ship, rending them stranded too.

This musical production is performed by a cast of nine actor-musicians.
