The Tempest Symposium

Presented by Seymour Centre
 The Tempest Symposium

This unique Performance Symposium transforms the theatre into a living rehearsal room, inviting students behind the scenes of Shakespeare's extraordinary play. Full scenes unfold in performance before opening up for artists to reveal the choices, questions and discoveries that shape interpretation, demonstrating how language, symbols, themes and performative ideas combine to create meaning within Shakespeare’s plays.

Designed specifically for Year 11 students, this immersive experience celebrates The Tempest as both a compelling story and an endlessly inventive piece of theatre. Themes of power, forgiveness, colonial encounter, freedom, illusion and imagination emerge not simply through discussion, but through the practical process of making the play live before the audience's eyes.
