I’m a theater producer as well as a novelist and playwright. Many years ago, when I first moved to Olympia, Washington I saw a beautiful stage beside the waters of the Puget Sound, and felt that the stage needed a great stage production of William Shakespeare’s late play The Tempest. I’ve had many changes in my life in the last year, and as I may not be in Olympia in the further future, I wanted to take the opportunity to finally launch this production. at the Port Plaza tower, alongside the water of Budd Bay.
In summer 2019, I was excited to gather together a stellar band of local actors (many of whom I know), a talented director (one of my best friends, and an Emmy-nominated thespian), as well as a skilled technical crew. We launched our show with a tech preview on 8/14 and opening night on 8/15.
We’ve received wonderful early preview articles and a great opening night review!
The Tempest is on stage in a simply amazing production on the weekends through August 31, 2019.
