Overview

On the return from the marriage of Princess Claribel to the King of Tunis, the ship of the King of Naples, Alonso, accompanied by his son Ferdinand, is caught in a storm and runs aground on an island inhabited by a monster, Caliban, and by an aerial spirit, Ariel. The former Duke of Milan, Prospero, once ousted from the throne by his brother Antonio, has lived there for twelve years: it was he who magically caused the storm ...If La Tempete, Shakespeare's last play written in 1611, is a comedy, its comic dimension remains discreet, and this singular work seems above all to be the equivalent of a court mask , a total spectacle with well-regulated ballets, with songs and music, where the art of the enchanter dominates. And the enchanter here is the omnipresent Prospero, who has put Caliban and Ariel at his service. Driven from power, he exercises his revenge, but does not refuse the hand of his daughter to Ferdinand.
