About this resource
On an island shaped by magic and contested authority, Prospero brings old opponents into his reach. The Tempest asks who can command, who must serve and what it means to give up control. Compare the accounts characters give of the past: ownership and belonging are rarely neutral claims. Read staging, sound and spectacle alongside dialogue to explore how a performance may make an act of forgiveness persuasive or troubling.
