katikat | Colin Morgan as Ariel

So, Colin Morgan returned to his theater roots in the Shakespeare Globe Theater in London, where he stars as Ariel in Shakespeare's The Tempest. What is it about?

Prospero, Duke of Milan, usurped and exiled by his own brother, holds sway over an enchanted island. He is comforted by his daughter Miranda and served by his spirit Ariel and his deformed slave Caliban. When Prospero raises a storm to wreck this perfidious brother and his confederates on the island, his long contemplated revenge at last seems within reach.

Morgan will be playing the role of Ariel, the spirit who rescues Prospero after he shipwrecks on the island. Ariel is enslaved to the witch Sycorax, and by helping Prospero he hopes to be granted his freedom.
