William Shakespeare’s The Tempest tells the story of Prospero, a powerful magician and the rightful Duke of Milan, who lives on a mysterious island with his daughter Miranda. With the help of the airy spirit Ariel, Prospero conjures a storm to shipwreck his enemies on the island. As princes and nobles wander the strange place, monsters and clowns plot silly schemes, a prince and a young woman fall in love, and magic leads not to revenge - but to forgiveness.
