A magic island, a stormy shipwreck and a royal mystery! Following on from CBeebies A Midsummer Night's Dream, Steven Kynman is back as William Shakespeare, this time with backstage help from Swashbuckle's Captain Captain. Andy Day takes on the fantastical Shakespearean role of the island monster Caliban, while Justin Fletcher is the comical King's jester, Trinculo. With Patrick Robinson as Prospero and Annette Badland as his good friend Gonzala, CBeebies The Tempest brings together an amazing cast to perform one of Shakespeare's best-loved plays. Set on an island not far from Italy, the play tells the story of Prospero, one-time Duke of Milan, who lives with his daughter Miranda, their monster servant Caliban and a magical, musical and mostly invisible sprite called Ariel.
