The Tempest
April 24th-May 10th 2026

🌊⚓️🩵🪵 

So as it turns out Mark Twain was onto something with the “Do the thing you fear the most and the death of fear is certain”. 

Before this show- I had resolved to be forever neutral about Tempest. I had grappled with it- Miranda in particular- for so long, to what felt like no avail. Miranda wasn’t a role I understood, she had never felt natural or instinctual to me, and I thought any chance of connecting with her had been permanently severed by disastrous attempts at scene study. I was afraid I’d never find my way to her, and she’d be this inauthentic shell of a girl people would tolerate until she’s ushered offstage.

The first read through rolled around, and I met the people who would help turn that fear on its head. Reading the scenes off the page, I discovered a tender and flawed Prospero across the way, met a soft and earnest Ferdinand to my left- and slowly- the ice began to thaw. As we continued world-building, day by day, it began to feel a little less daunting. And I have to gush- the sheer amount of artistry that went into creating the show still has me gobsmacked- I still struggle to articulate the majesty of it all. 

I was given the gift to start from scratch- and what we built felt so deeply authentic. We were given the space to unearth so much truth about these people, distilling it into the text was second nature. I needed the freedom to find my way back to the heart of the story on my own terms, and once I did, with the help of the folks around me, it unfolded for me.

So if you’re sat in front of a choice, and waiting for a nudge- please take the plunge. You’ll learn more than you can fathom, and as my life keeeeeps trying to teach me, the projects that scare the living daylights out of you might just be the ones to help you grow the most. 

I hesitated to write this for so long because some part of it felt like letting go. But after all this time I know now, I get to carry this with me. To my Prospero, to my Ferdinand, my corvid companion, my spirits of the wind, thank you, I miss you every day. Tempest, you strange tale, you seem to have my heart. 🩵
