The Tempest (Furtuna)

The Tempest (Furtuna)

“I.L. Caragiale” National Theatre, Bucharest, Romania

Director: Alexander Morfov

3 hours with 1 breaks.

A fairytale about an unsceptred duke, who later becomes the magician Prospero, and about his daughter, Miranda. A comedy of illusion, extravaganza, a text about power and revenge, The Tempest is, above any performance, a play about the demiurgic strength of art and imagination. The science Prospero uses surpasses human laws, controls nature and apparitions and bestirs love.

The distribution is impressive - Ion Caramitru is playing Prospero in this captivating enactment, with rapturous rhythms, humour and emotion; its rich plasticity and the tempi of musical illustration remain alive in the minds of the theatregoers for a long time after they have left the hall.
