After storming the Hamilton Arts Festival in February Penny Ashton is flying in to haunt The Meteor with a Halloween special performance of The Tempestuous: A Shrew'd New Comedy by Will Shakespeare and Penny Ashton. Sicily’s beloved King Enzo is dead.
Now Princess Rosa, a stroppy spinster, must navigate the tempestuous waters of belching stepfathers, lusty suitors, popping cod pieces and menopausal witches, to face her destiny.
Award-winning Comedian Penny Ashton (Promise and Promiscuity, Olive Copperbottom) presents her latest literary solo musical, sparking 11 characters into life in an Elizabethan tale of magic, meddling and puffed bull’s pizzles.
“... a funny and clever romp...an excellently written script that Shakespeare himself would be proud of.” - Theatrescenes
"incredibly clever" Radio NZ
"Phenomenal energy, vivacity, versatility, inventiveness and humour." Theatreview
