Shakespeare's TEMPEST Completes A.U. Theatre's Spring Season

William Shakespeare's final play THE TEMPEST, will be the final addition to Auburn University Theatre's 2005-2006 season. The play willrun March 7-12, 2006 and be directed by A.U. Guest Instructor Chris Qualls, a recent graduate of the M.F.A. Program at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival.

Audition for The Tempest here!

No reading of The Tempest can do it justice: Shakespeare's tale of Prospero's Island is inherently theatrical, unfolding in a series of spectacles that involve magic, romance, intrigue and humor. The richness of The Tempest as theatre is matched by the extraordinary thematic complexity of its text. Recognizing that all of the themes of the play cannot be discussed here, from one angle on the text, The Tempest asks a single question, one that Shakespeare had posed in many of his other plays and one that is echoed quietly in every play of the current season: What does it mean to be fully human?

Make plans to see THE TEMPEST along with the rest of our exciting season today!
