In The Parks FREE to the Public! "The Tempest" July 29th, 6PM
The Tempest, which is believed to be the last play Shakespeare wrote by himself and also his farewell to the world of the theatre, is a dense, rich story of revenge and forgiveness that immediately grabs us and hurls us into a fascinating world filled with spirits and imaginative characters. As Prospero, with help from his trusted spirit Ariel, uses his wizardry to plan revenge on those who deposed him from his dukedom years before. The play ultimately ends with Prospero forgiving all as he buries his magic books and returns to his native land. The role of Prospero will be played by MSIP veteran Gordon Carpenter who first toured with the company in 1983. “Initially what attracted me to this play was Prospero’s journey from revenge to forgiveness particularly set in the context of this being one of the last plays that Shakespeare wrote,” says Artistic Director Joel Jahnke, who will direct the show. “The idea that this is his goodbye to the theatre is certainly tempting and I find those particular passages compelling and very touching. I want to draw heavily on The Pirates of the Caribbean for inspiration because I think the swashbuckling characters in that film are a perfect fit for this ‘seafarers in jeopardy’ story as well as The Lord of the Rings, particularly for its creation of a world of magical characters within a realistic framework. ” An enthralling tale, complete with fantastical plot twists and sweet romance, ends, as all the best tales do: with hope and forgiveness. Thank you to our Sponsors: King's Stores Fund in the Idaho Community Foundation, Lemhi Artists Guild, and the Nancy M. Cummings Research, Extension and Education Center!
5th Annual Blues, Brews, & BBQ
The Charles Walker Band is a 5 piece band that performs various styles of Blues, R&B and funk with precision and energy. What adds to the band uniqueness, apart from award winning musicians (together for 5 years), is the richness of the original material. As one critic said, “Real edge of your seat, power wire blues.” A quote from Noggin Blues Matters! Magazine describes them best, “...we are treated to the full panoply of Blues styles, great tunes, intelligent lyrics, and superb instrumentation throughout.”
