Storyboard Text

  • MAN vs MAN
  • MAN vs SELF
  • MAN vs NATURE
  • Prospero entrusted his brother Antonio with his Dukedom duties because he wanted to spend his time on other things that interested him more. Antonio seized the opportunity to take Prospero’s place by forming an alliance with Alonso, the King of Naples, and exiled Prospero for 12 years. Prospero vows revenge.
  • Alonso believes his son Ferdinand is dead, and his daughter has just been married to the King of Tunis, very far away. He is deep in grief over losing both of his children, and Sebastian chides him for making the decision to marry Claribel off in the first place, sending Alonso further into guilt and despair.
  • The tempest itself becomes its own force, spurred on by Ariel, that none of the sailors or men can handle. The boat catches fire and splits up in the sea, sending all of the men plunging into the raging waters.
