"That's one of many things that Berkeley Shakespeare Company's production of Shakespeare's The Tempest (Fri/24 through November 2), set on a gorgeous bit of California coastline at Point Montara, has going for it. Composed of a diminutive chunk of cliff jutting out above rocky shoals and crashing waves and topped with a 30-foot working lighthouse, and several historic buildings that now serve as a traveler's hostel, the point is just 25 miles south of San Francisco-but it feels about 100 years away."
"Directed by Stuart Bousel, and artistically facilitated by Chris Bauman (the on-site manager of the Point Montara HI youth hostel, where actors and audience alike are invited to stay) this Tempest seeks to immerse its audiences with 360-degree world-building-crashing waves! Art installations! A custom score composed by Katherine Park!. That, and an opportunity for genuine interactivity and an unforgettable communal experience."
