The Tempest by william Shakeapeare Caliban
     "I have bedimm'd the noontide sun, call'd forth the mutinous winds,
And 'twixt the green sea and the azured vault set roaring war: to the dread rattling thunder have I given fire and rifted Jove's stout oak with his own bolt; Graves at my command have waked their sleepers, oped, and let 'em forth by my so potent art." - (Prospero) Act 5, Sc 1

'I wasn't expecting that.
It was brilliant.'

'So much energy.
They must be exhausted.'		 'Oh my God!
Shakespeare's really good.'

'I loved the music
and the lights best.'

     The Long Overdue Theatre Company don't need much of an excuse to innovate when it comes to our Shakespeare productions and by adding The Tempest to our repertoire we have picked a play which enables us to deploy our full arsenal of stage trickery. All the techniques we have developed and refined through years of touring have come together in one place to produce what can only be called a spectacle. The story is told through a huge variety of mediums including mask work, voice over, projection and interactive DVD characters which drive the story forward with energy and passion.

***An innovative pacy and exciting production which reached out to even my most reluctant year 10s!***
We offer a huge amount of support with the show including:
  • Full colour A2 size posters and over-printed A6 flyers
  • A self-sufficient and professional tech crew (no need to hire casuals)
  • A comprehensive Teacher's Pack authored by a Head of English; including lesson plans and ideas for follow up work.
  • Post show Q & A sessions for the kids (or inquisitive adults)
  • Post tour web forum to deal with any questions that arise from the show or Teacher's Pack
  • Full access for schools to our website and trailers (Teachers love the site and appreciate our energetic style)

We are programming the autumn tour now! For more info on the show,
