Julie Taymor has it right in this new upcoming film version of the Tempest. The magic, and spirits, creatures and nymphs that inhabit the island of the Tempest allow for an amazing use of spectacle on the stage. As opposed to Macbeth or King Lear, Tempest has the freedom to fully realize the capabilities of the theatre and our designers can go crazy. Spectacle definately helps to sell tickets!
