Washed ashore following a terrible storm, King Alonso and his court encounter a strange island inhabited by monsters, fairies and the wizard duke once betrayed by Alonzo. Come join us for the Baron's Men production of Shakespeare’s immortal tale of magic, love and redemption.

This is an open-air performance where guests will be sitting on unpaved ground.  There will be a bit of a walk from the parking area to the performance area.  The Tempest will not be performed within the Curtain Theater, but on another area of the same property in the village of Castleton near the ship. Feel free to use the wooden benches provided, bring your own chairs, or enjoy the evening as a blanket picnic.

      What an amazing experience! The wind blowing the torches, the water lapping on the shore, and spirits running through the audience make it easy to get lost into the fantastical world that is The Tempest. The acting was crisp and well done, the staging was great, as the audience is as much a part of the show as the players. Don't miss this opportunity, you will walk away feeling as if you too had been ship wrecked. The Baron's Men have done it again, as the show is very well done, don't miss being part of the action, and go see this play! Collapse

      What an amazing experience! The wind blowing the torches, the water lapping against the shore, and spirits running through the audience. It's easy to get pulled into the fantastical world that is The Tempest while watching this production. The acting was crisp and well done, the humor was well timed, and the play is wonderfully staged, as the audience is right in the middle of it all. I can not recommend more that you see this production, because not only will you see a great play, you'll be part of the action. Collapse

      I saw this show's preview performance and enjoyed it. The staging is original and really pulled the audience into performance. I liked it and recommend it to others.
