For 2023, the Globe’s outdoor ‘summer’ season again soft launches at the very end of winter with a schools and young people-orientated take on a Shakespeare classic. This time it’s his final play ‘The Tempest’ in a sprightly 90-minute production from Diane Page, who directed last year’s enjoyable touring version of ‘Julius Caesar’.
ICYMI, ‘The Tempest’ concerns magical happenings on an enchanted island after magician Prospero conjures the titular storm in order to shipwreck his treacherous brother.
