The Tempest | Main Company Production
By William Shakespeare
For 2011 we have once again turned to the works of the Bard.
The magician Prospero orchestrates spirits, monsters, a grief-stricken king, a wise old councillor, two treacherous brothers and a storm at sea into a fantastical conspiracy bringing banishment, sorcery and shipwreck into the lives of two hapless lovers to stir and seal their fate.
July 1st - July 16th, 2011
Robert & Ruby Joy joined Mary Ito, host of CBC's weekend morning show Fresh Air, to talk about their roles in this season's Main Company performance, The Tempest.
They're dad and daughter in real life. Now actors Robert and Ruby Joy are father (Prospero) and daughter (Miranda) in this season's production of William Shakespeare's The Tempest. It's happening in Barrie...but Robert and Ruby drove down to Toronto to talk about their love for Will's plays...and working together for the first time.
Listen to their interview (runs 11:38).
Richard Ouzounian, theatre critic for the Toronto Star, interviews Robert Joy only days before the opening performance of The Tempest.
On any given week, you can see Robert Joy on CSI: NY, playing the genial coroner, Dr. Sid Hammerback, dispensing pearls of deadpan wisdom as he slits apart a cadaver and probes its innards.
And on this bright early summer morning, he’s sitting in his sister Debora’s house in the Beach, doing the same thing to the role of Prospero in The Tempest, which he’s preparing for a July opening at Theatre by the Bay in Barrie.
Read the rest of Richard's column.
