“Ariel, played as a muscular but anguished spirit by Peter Caulfield... His strong physical performance contains some extraordinary contortions...”
”Director Amy Draper has used every inch of available space to great effect, with the breath of Prospero’s magic scattering the cast to all points of the compass. Her production is intensely physical too, with movement director Chi-San Howard contributing a wildly abandoned dance for the island’s revels.”

“...light and sound are used to convey her (Prospero’s) magical power along with terrific usage of body movement – no additional effects necessary. She’s assisted by Peter Caulfield, a suitably other-worldly Ariel, who moves about the space like shadow...”

“Lighting, sound and movement are used to marvellous effect, creating some stunning set pieces, in particular Miranda and Ferdinand’s betrothal masque, which becomes a feverish dance.”

“And a literally straitjacketed Ariel (Peter Caulfield), lurking on the outskirts of scenes, makes for a striking, forlorn presence.”
