People have been producing and performing in The Tempest for over 400 years. This is a story about revenge, shipwrecks, magical spirits, young love, conniving brothers, forgiveness, redemption and change. Set on a remote and magical island where seemingly anything can happen and which is full of “sounds and sweet airs that give delight and hurt not,” this is one of Shakespeare’s most mature and deeply felt works. It features monsters and drunken clowns and contains language both silly and lyrical. Our production will feature magic and live music and will focus on making the text accessible to all audiences.

The Tempest

University of Northern Iowa

An unconscious leading lady, a corpse who can't play dead, a ruffled detective, and a word-mangling butler (among others) must battle against technical gaffes, forgotten lines, and sabotaging scenery in a quest to arrive all in one piece at the final curtain call.

Featuring hidden doors, a disintegrating set, and actors who are prone to mishaps, The Play That Goes Wrong, a smash hit on Broadway, London and on multiple international tours, is one of the funniest and best known comedies of the past decade.
