"What's Past is Prologue."
Antonio, Act 2, Scene 1
The SCSC is pleased to announce the second production of its Fall 2026 season, William Shakespeare’s masterpiece, The Tempest.
Prospero, a betrayed duke and magician, is bent on justice and revenge. He summons his magical gifts into a devastating sea storm, which hurls the ship’s crew onto the island—among them his usurping brother. With supernatural islanders as unwilling agents of his scheme and the castaways spellbound, Prospero’s plot advances. Old scores must be settled; his daughter, Miranda, must find love.
But, as his vision unfolds, a different ending emerges—one of forgiveness, love, compassion, and redemption. This play is considered by many to be the Bard’s final play.
