Award-winning animator Michael Granberry visited WHQR just before Shakespeare's The Tempest opened.  Granberry came to Wilmington to direct the show for Dram Tree Shakespeare, bringing his creative approach to theatre and penchant for puppetry into play.  The show is now in it's final weekend and tickets only remain for the last performance on Sunday, May 1st.

The Tempest is staged at McEachern's Warehouse on the corner of Front and Orange Streets in downtown Wilmington.  Tickets are available online, by telephone at 800-838-3006, or if you're feeling lucky, possibly at the door.
