The Tempest

“My high charms work, And these, mine enemies, are all knit up, In their distractions. They now are in my power.” Prospero: Act 3 Scene 3 

Our prospero is inspired by Salvador Dali/ Jackson Pollock in his studio, his canvas: the island itself, a giant canvas playground. The colonial themes in the play are portrayed by a sympathetic Caliban, left over from the Romantic era.

Students relaxing outside of the School
The School is in a beautiful part of Bristol, overlooking a huge park called the Downs. We sometimes take advantage of our close proximity to the Downs during the summer term, practising fight and dance routines, or voice or singing classes! Dan Hall, BA Professional Acting student
