In this episode, we conclude our exploration of The Tempest by examining three distinct interpretations of Shakespeare's final solo play. We begin with Julie Taymor's 2010 film adaptation, featuring Helen Mirren as Prospera, and reflect on the criticism of it we read about in our episode, The Tempest: Patriarchy, Gender, and Power in Shakespeare's Play . We then turn to The Globe's 2013 stage production, directed by Jeremy Herrin, to discuss how its traditional staging and ensemble approach illuminate the play's theatricality and humor. Finally, we analyze the Donmar Warehouse's 2016 production, directed by Phyllida Lloyd and starring Harriet Walter, which reimagines The Tempest within a women's prison as part of Lloyd's groundbreaking Shakespeare Trilogy. Throughout this episode, we reflect on what (for us) makes an effective production of The Tempest and discuss how these productions can be used to illuminate the text.
