The Tempest: Fathom This

"Behold, sir King,
The wronged Duke of Milan, Prospero."

And behold Christopher Plummer  as the wronged king in the movie filmed at a stage performance in Stratford, Ontario.

The Movie Slut was lucky enough to see this extraordinary rendition of Shakespeare's tragicomedy thanks to Fathom Events, an outfit that also brings simulcasts from the Metropolitan Opera to local theaters.

Check it out.

These are singular opportunities to enjoy performances that would otherwise be out of reach geographically, and/or monetarily.

Bravo.
