Hag-Seed: William Shakespeare's The Tempest Retold - Atwood, Margaret
Hag-Seed: William Shakespeare's The Tempest Retold - Atwood, Margaret
Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; Felix is at the top of his game as Artistic Director of the Makeshiweg Theatre Festival. His productions have amazed and confounded. Now he's staging a Tempest like no other: not only will it boost his reputation, it will heal emotional wounds. Or that was the plan. Instead, after an act of unforeseen treachery, Felix is living in exile in a backwoods hovel, haunted by memories of his beloved lost daughter, Miranda. And also brewing revenge. After 12 years, his chance finally arrives in the shape of a theatre course at a nearby prison. Here, Felix and his inmate actors will put on his Tempest and snare the traitors who destroyed him. It's magic! But will it remake Felix as his enemies fall? Margaret Atwood's take on Shakespeare's play of enchantment, revenge and second chances leads us on an illusion-ridden journey with new surprises and wonders of its own.
