The Tempest - William Shakespeare

14-16th April

The Crescent Theatre

"The inspired words of Shakespeare are safe in the wonderful young hands of the city's Stage2 youth theatre company. The outstanding talent of the juvenile actors on show almost defies belief in the way they master the bard's text. Many of the cast have never been on stage before but with their ages matched by many in the sell-out audience, they are successfully bringing  the works of Shakespeare to a whole new generation. Yolanda Kettle leads a superb cast as Prospero, the rightful Duchess of Milan, Hannah McDonagh is delightful as her innocent daughter and there are equally splendid performances from Colin Green as the tortured slave Caliban and a lovely comic cameo from Lucy Bailey as the drunken cook Stephana."
