The Tempest is by William Shakespeare. The classic play following the adventures of Prospero and his daughter Miranda who have been shipwrecked on an island with only the creature Caliban and the spirit Ariel for company. Prospero is the former Duke of Milan who was ousted by his brother Antonio with the help of the King of Naples, Alonso. Prospero is a magician and arranges for a ship carrying Antonio, Alonso, Alonso's son Ferdinand, and various others to be caught in a storm and shipwrecked on his island so he can seek his revenge and regain his dukedom. A classic tale of revenge, forgiveness, and love. This particular version of the play is perfect for students who have limited knowledge of the Bard' work.
