Exiled by her brother to a remote island and left to die, Prospera—the once loved Duchess of Milan and now an all-powerful sorceress—conjures a great tempest to wash ashore a ship of her enemies. With the power of magic, Prospera manipulates the survivors of the wreckage to weave a story of revenge, retribution, and reconciliation. Rich with spectacle, humor and wonder, Shakespeare's final play brings audiences to a "brave new world " where reconciliation is possible and humanity is renewed.

Nationally acclaimed director and Executive Director of HSF joins HSF Veteran actors Laura Frye (Prospera), and Wesley Whitson (Ariel) to bring THE TEMPEST to HSF and the Miller Outdoor Theatre after a 20-year absence.

Shakespeare’s riotous farce of mistaken identity, The Comedy of Errors, brings double trouble to the bustling port city of Ephesus when two sets of twins—separated at birth—unexpectedly cross paths, unleashing a whirlwind of mayhem and mirth.

In this fast-paced comedy bursting with physical humor, outrageous confusion, and joyful surprise, husbands are mistaken for strangers, servants are denied their own names, and no one can tell friend from foe. As misunderstandings multiply and tempers flare, the laughter never lets up.

Filled with rapid-fire wit and escalating absurdity, The Comedy of Errors showcases Shakespeare at his most playful. Don’t miss this crowd-pleasing classic, directed by HSF Artistic Director Jack Young.
