About This Production
The Tempest
by William Shakespeare
directed by M. Burke Walker
GRAND RE-OPENING of the Jones Playhouse
Shakespeare’s final play is a wonder of invention, an exuberant celebration of theatrical art and artifice: a tempest, a shipwreck, castaways, lost children, music, first love, revenge, drunken clowns, murder plots, magic, monsters, spirits, and three Roman gods! The Tempest and its enchanted island are a middle world where society is turned upside down and the future placed in the hands of two young lovers.
No late seating for School of Drama events.
Running Time: 2 hours, 15 minutes including intermission
The UW Arts Ticket Office will be closed on Wed, Nov 11th. Tickets are available online or in person at the Jones Playhouse box office starting at 6:30 pm on the night of the show.
