Bard to Go: Tossing on the Ocean
Saturday, Oct. 26, 7:00 pm
Bard to Go is a 50-minute program of scenes which gives students a lively, accessible introduction to Shakespeare in performance. The program is in its 19th year of touring to local Michigan schools.
Bard to Go: Tossing on the Ocean takes the audience on a sea-faring journey with Prospero, a powerful magician, and his assistant Ariel, a magical spirit with strange powers. When Prospero and Ariel conjure a storm to shipwreck Prospero’s enemies, their magic spills over from their own play, The Tempest, and causes havoc for many of Shakespeare’s characters. This production includes scenes from The Tempest, Twelfth Night, Pericles, The Winter's Tale, and The Merchant of Venice.
