Looking for something special to do with the kids over the March break? Rag and Bone Puppet Theatre will present their newest play, The Tempest, at the Fourth Stage of the National Arts Centre on March 19th and 20th at 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. The Tempest is a 45-minute adaptation of Shakespeare’s most magical masterpiece. It tells the story of Prospero, a wizard marooned on an enchanted island with his daughter, Miranda. With a mischievous sprite, Ariel, Prospero uses his magic powers to create a storm, a shipwreck, and to play tricks on his enemies until he learns about the true power of love and forgiveness. John Nolan and Kathy MacLellan appear on stage as visible, costumed puppeteer/storytellers, working colourful, three-foot-high puppet characters. Well-known local musician Russell Levia plays live musical accompaniment, inspired by Dvorak and Satie. Rag and Bone Puppet Theatre is an award-winning company, “known for delightful and intelligent puppet shows for kids of all ages.” (Ottawa Citizen) Read the story of The Tempest here... Contact: |
