The Tempest is a play by William Shakespeare, probably written in 1610–1611,
and thought to be one of the last plays that Shakespeare wrote alone. After
the first scene, which takes place on a ship at sea during a tempest, the rest
of the story is set on a remote island, where the sorcerer Prospero, a complex
and contradictory character, lives with his daughter Miranda, and his two
servants—Caliban, a savage monster figure, and Ariel, an airy spirit. The play
contains music and songs that evoke the spirit of enchantment on the island.
It explores many themes, including magic, betrayal, revenge, and family. In
Act IV, a wedding masque serves as a play-within-the play, and contributes
spectacle, allegory, and elevated language.
