Overview

A masterpiece adapted into vibrant, multi-media form. The dramatic poetry and visionary celebration - freed from archaic language and reference - is for today's audiences. Like nothing else the Bard wrote, it is a play for our cultural renaissance, our age of radical transformation. It is a new ritual evoking an ancient myth - the search for earthly paradise amid earth's and its peoples' relentless exploitation. This dramatic fantasy resonates with timeless power. Nature's magical forces intervene in the power struggles born of human folly and ignorance. A tempest inevitably precedes transition and rebirth into a new world and Humanity then discovers its correct position of balance and service in the flow of Nature and the Cosmos.
