The Tempest

Donmar Warehouse (King’s Cross Theatre North)

This was the third part in a trilogy of Shakespeare plays, not obviously thematically linked as plays but performed in a consistent manner – with an all-female cast headed by Harriet Walter and a linking framing device that all the plays are being performed by a group of female prisoners. The first part was Julius Caesar. The second part was Henry IV.

To counterfeit thus grossly

The world of what is and isn’t Shakespeare is a murky one.
