REVIEW: The Tempest

Huge yellow crates, plentiful rubber ducks, and Ibiza-stag-do vibes abound in this colourful production which plays to the crowd with the joy and aptitude one expects from a Globe ensemble. The moments of playfulness, silliness, and superb ad-libbing are hilarious and feel as if they were discovered organically in what I can only assume was a delightful rehearsal process.
