The Tempest

We went to see an outdoor version of the Tempest at First Folio. I always enjoy their Shakespeare productions. They don't do the bard in modern dress, they don't try to impose weird interpretatons, and they work hard at getting the meat of the play across to a contemporary audience.

I am weary
Of going to see a Shakespeare play
But instead just seeing the director's theory
Of what drama should say.
