The Tempestuous
Tuesday, 7 October, 7.30-9.30pm Tickets: Eventfinda $30+fees, Summit Real Estate Picton and door sales $35 Sicily’s beloved King Enzo is dead. Now Princess Rosa, a stroppy spinster, must navigate the tempestuous waters of belching Step Fathers, lusty suitors, popping cod pieces and menopausal witches, to face her destiny. Award Winning Comedian Penny Ashton (Promise and Promiscuity, Olive Copperbottom) presents her latest literary solo musical with this Shakespearean frolic. She’ll spark 11 characters into life in an Elizabethan tale of magic, meddling and puffed bull’s puzzles. ”Masterful ‘shrewd comedy’ a tempestuous triumph…a phenomenal play.” The Post “Surely at some point we get to call Penny Ashton a national treasure? Her terrific new one-woman musical comedy The Tempestuous, co-written with one W. Shakespeare, certainly reiterates that she’s one of the most consistently excellent live performers in the country. This is really a masterclass in adaptation.” Flat City Field Notes “..a well-crafted and deftly performed production of a witty and intelligent show. I very much appreciate the skillful use of Shakespearean material throughout.” Theatreview “… a funny and clever romp…an excellently written script that Shakespeare himself would be proud of.” Theatrescenes |
