"To answer thy best pleasure" - The Tempest, listening party and book discussion
Listening Party & Book Discussion - The Tempest by William Shakespeare
Sun, August 10, 1pm - 4pm
The Great Lawn of the Whitehorn Library, Caledon VIctoria City

"The Tempest" gives all the storm warnings for hackneyed predictability, with its motley crew of stock character types and situations: the exiled nobleman, the airy spirit, the twisted brutish villain, the stainless young lovers, a shipwreck and a dessert isle. But in the Bard's hands it suffers a sea change... into something rich and strange. Come and enjoy the company of fellow enthusiasts to hear a recording of the entire play, accompanied by discussion of whatever strikes us as we listen... or join us in spirit by tuning in at http://music.radioriel.org.
All lovers of Shakespeare's plays, and likewise all brutes, dupes, dukes, vagrant spirits, drunken butlers, and lovelorn youths are welcome to join us, whether they are familiar with the play or not.
The listening party and book discussion begins the festivities for the third month of Shakespeare Summer, sponsored by the Caledon Library and produced by Radio Riel. The week will feature themed music programing on Radio's Riel's main stream at http://music.radioriel.org and will conclude on Saturday August 16th with a Grand Ball on the enchanted Isle of Winterfell Libris.

"Full fathom five thy father lies;
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes;
Nothing of him that does fade"
