Description: The Tempest is Shakespeare's testament to 'the stuff that dreams are mad on,' a msterpiece of magical effects, redemptive romance and lyrical poetry. The last of the plays written solely by the Bard, it is the most frequently adapted, in extravagant stage, screen, opera and broadcast porductions. Above all, it is a play that repays reading, to relish the unfolding story, revelation of character and beauty of language. And along the way, the reader discovers the unmistakable message this story bears. It is Shakespeare's own farewell.
