Shakespeare's classic comedy still features a deserted island with spirits, a magical wizard, a sea monster and, of course, a raging storm at sea but this version offers a fast-paced, trimmed down retelling of the story. Fourteen or more players with flexible casting is all that is needed to delight your audience.
