you...


*THE TEMPEST by William Shakespeare*
directed by Liana D. Martino

August 1-2 & 8-9 at 7:30 – 9:30pm (8/1 Gala begins at 6:30pm)
August 3 & 10 at 2:00 - 4:00 pm

All performances to be held outdoors at
Ten Broeck Mansion
9 Ten Broeck Place in Albany, NY.

For the first time ever, Shakespeare’s immortal tale of magic, treason,
love, and public drunkeness will be performed against the spell-binding
backdrop of the intimate Ten Broeck Mansion gardens. Ship-wrecking the
audience onto the untamed shores of Prospero’s enchanted island, the battle
between civilized society and the passions that boil tempestuously just
under its surface has never been explored so deeply, in such a wild and
immersive setting.

A diverse cast supported by African dance and music make this production of
the Tempest a unique and entertaining experience that’s sure to provide
thrills and laughter to the whole community!

With Parker Cross, Caroline Stuto, Jennifer Drummond, Sheila O'Shea,
Kathleen Engelhardt, Luc Lagace, Katrina Wilkinson, Blessilda Naclerio,
Christopher Kowalski, Ben Martin, Genevieve Mailloux, and Stephen Henel

Guests are encouraged to bring chairs and blankets (and bug spray!) and
