The Feast: an intimate Tempest
(312) 595-5600chicagoshakes.com
$35–$45A Beckettian psychological study of exiled wizard Prospero (John Judd), Jessica Thebus and Frank Maugeri’s stripped-down adaptation of Shakespeare’s Tempest is a bleak, absurd look at one man’s efforts to forgive and find peace. Redmoon’s signature combination of puppetry, masks and movement strikingly conjures Prospero’s magic, but The Feast occasionally sacrifices clarity for spectacle. Portraying Ariel, Caliban and every other role, Samuel Taylor and Adrian Danzig show off extensive vocal and physical range. Prospero has total power in his world of wooden ghosts, yet Judd is at his most captivating when the wizard releases his magic and his slaves, revealing the weary man who remains when the strings are cut.
