Back on Schedule: "The Tempest"

   The production of The Tempest at Jenny Wiley Theatre had to be postponed a couple of weeks after a fire damaged the set and theatre - but repairs have been made, the stage rebuilt, and now the show is back on schedule!

   The William Shakespeare play will be presented on Feb. 23, 24 and March 1, 2 and 3 at 7:30 p.m. at the Jenny Wiley Mainstage in Pikeville, KY. Tickets are $14 for adults and $9 for children.


   The Tempest opens in the midst of a storm, as a ship containing the King of Naples and his party struggles to stay afloat. On land, Prospera and her daughter, Miranda, watch the storm envelop the ship. Prospera has created the storm with magic, and she explains that her enemies are on board the ship.

   Congratulations to the company for overcoming a major problem and keeping the show on track!

   The show must go on!
