it was amazing

While not known for it's verisimilitude, this play is deceptive, there is a lot of symbolism and things going on that might not be the first thing you notice. It sends one thinking, is Prospero good or evil? A wizard in control of a (possibly evil) spirit, with the power of the locals at his hands. The revenge vs. forgiveness theme. The social order. I recommend this play quite a bit.
