    • 20 Pages

Pervading and informing the action of the play‚ music is always sounding‚ always affecting and shaping the lives of the characters. Often directionless and ambiguous in its meaning‚ the music of The Tempest provides a context for Prospero’s magical machinations and becomes‚ through the course of the play‚ a powerfully evocative symbol of this magic. In The Tempest music is the medium through which order emerges from chaos; it

    What is the nature of Prospero and Miranda’s relationship? Discuss moments where Miranda seems to be entirely dependent on her father and moments where she seems independent. How does Miranda’s character change over the course of the play? At first‚ Miranda seems very young.

    Staging of The Tempest It is clear that The Tempest depends for much of its success on a wide range of special effects such as sound‚ lighting‚ and fantastic visions of the natural and supernatural worlds.
