Black Swan State Theatre Company presents
The Tempest
by William Shakespeare
Octagon Theatre
20 Nov to 11 Dec
 
Some dreams awaken you. 
 
We invite you on a dream-like journey through a strangely familiar world. Sea shanties crash against Indian raags, on an island brimming with music, magic and wonder. Starring a cast of eleven extraordinary West Australian actors, The Tempest asks: What do you need to let go of?
Join us for an experience that will awaken our deepest longings.
