A Tempest Upon Us: Our October 3 Performance is Cancelled
It seems Prospero’s magic has worked a little too well, conjuring a real storm over South Carolina. Due to rainy weather, the SC Shakespeare Company must regrettably cancel tonight's performance of The Tempest.
While we always strive to bring the magic of the island to life, we must consider the comfort of our cast, crew, and beloved audience, as well as how our electrical equipment does not get along well with water. We refuse to let our brave patrons face the wrath of the mutinous winds (or wet grass)!
Fear not, the skies will clear! Ariel will calm the seas, and we will return to the stage beginning Wednesday, October 7 to resume our tale of magic, betrayal, and forgiveness.
Please stay safe and dry tonight. We look forward to welcoming you to the island next week when the storm has passed.
