Grand Pageantry -- The storm of all storms leaves royal revelers
and two bumbling servants shipwrecked on the shores of an enchanted
island inhabited by an embittered sorcerer, his young daughter
and a host of mystical spirits. With the help of a few charms
and the stuff that dreams are made of, bitterness, rage and
revenge are transformed to love, reconciliation and rebirth
in Shakespeare's great and final masterpiece -- not seen at
The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey since 1991, when it launched
Bonnie J. Monte's debut
season as artistic director. Theatre resident artist Brian B.
Crowe, who gave us last season's exuberant production of The
Comedy of Errors, directs this tragi-comic allegory that
sparkles with magic and visual splendor.
