Take Shakespeare's final play The Tempest with its violent seas, windswept island, crucial connection to nature, and underlying theme of forgiveness, and bring it into a prison, the ultimate venue of confinement.  The result is an extraordinary story about the creative process and the power of art to heal and redeem - in a place where the very act of participation in theatre is a human triumph and a means of personal liberation.

Philomath films.  Food and refreshments served.
