Description
Part 3 features close-readings from Professor Laurie Maguire of some of the play’s key speeches: Caliban’s extraordinarily lyrical description of the island; Prospero’s beautiful and disturbing evocation of theatre, and perhaps the world, coming to an end; and Prospero’s renunciation of his magic.
Speeches and performers:
Caliban, 3.2, “Be not afeard …” (Kelly Hunter, MBE)
Prospero, 4.1, “Be cheerful, sir. Our revels now are ended …” (Anton Lesser)
Prospero, 5.1, “You elves of hills …” (Dame Harriet Walter)
