The 1983 Stratford Festival production of "The Tempest" is traditional and faithful to Shakespeare's original intent. It is also beautifully acted. Everyone is at the top of their game here. It will make you laugh; it will stir your heart; it may even move you to tears.
Len Cariou is an amazing Prospero. He inhabits the character. Over the course of the play you watch him show the full range of emotions, from rage to sorrow to love to joy, and he makes you believe every time that he truly feels it.
The costumes are lavish and appropriate to the characters. The music is beautiful and memorable.
Above all, Shakespeare's beautiful message of true love and mercy shines through here as in no other production. After watching this, one will realize how art can truly inspire and cultivate the human soul.
