A very high concept but extremely simple staging of this classic using only long poles and white fabric to "construct" each scene--Prospero's cell, the logs, the bog, a tree, weapons, etc.
The theater itself became a "playground" for Prospero and Ariel who had access to all the seating banks, catwalks and gallery so they could best use their magic from those lofty vantage points.

The tempest as orchestrated by Ariel who watches from the top. Poles become the ship's stern, rails and masts as the company slides back and forth across the stage simulating the rocking of the storm.
