It is such stuff as dreams are made on. For a dozen years, isolated on an enchanted island, Prospero has contemplated revenge on his usurper brother while caring for his daughter Miranda and studying magical texts that allow him to conjure spirits of the air and monsters of the earth. Finally, the opportunity arises to unfurl retribution upon his enemies. But after Prospero creates a storm to shipwreck those he loathes; he must deal with the unforeseen consequences. Shakespeare’s reverie on reckoning and redemption weaves a tale of love and magic in this timeless story.
