The Tempest, Princeton Day School
Princeton Day School Theater presents The Tempest, November 13-15, in the McAneny Theater. The Tempest marks Shakespeare's final masterpiece, blending magic, betrayal and redemption. When the rightful Duke of Milan, Prospero, is betrayed and cast out to sea, he finds refuge on a mysterious island with his daughter Miranda, the spirit Ariel and the monstrous Caliban. Years later, a storm conjured by Prospero shipwrecks his enemies on the island's shores. As magic swirls and secrets surface, young lovers meet, old scores rise to the surface and nothing is quite what it seems. Tickets available via the Box Office. The show runs 60 minutes and is open to all ages. Please note that there are loud sounds and visual effects.

Graveyard Shift, Lewis Center for the Arts
Graveyard Shift is a gothic horror tragicomedy set in a haunted graveyard-turned-luxury-apartment complex. Fugitive librarians, a puritanical gravedigger, and a steampunk orphan grapple with the fear of death as the cost of one’s “calling” threatens to claim the ultimate price. Blending high-stakes physicality, lyrical dialogue, and kick-ass heavy metal, Graveyard Shift is a darkly absurdist exploration of faith, grief, and narratives of survival. Conceived and created by Princeton senior Ash Baudelaire and directed by senior Matthew Cooperberg.
