Miranda’s Letter: a story inspired by Shakespeare's The Tempest

William Shakespeare

1611

"Tis a brave new world which you will be exploring.”

This melancholy reimagining of The Tempest, likely William Shakespeare’s final play, uses a heartfelt and handwritten letter to explore the relationship between Miranda, played by Raffey Cassidy, and the mother she lost.

Shakespeare Lives, funded by the British Council, took place in 2016 to commemorate 400 years since Shakespeare’s death. The global celebration encompassed film, theatre, dance and literature.
