For the Whim Productions presents "The Tempest"

originally published: 11/04/2024


(BRIDGETON, NJ) -- For the Whim Productions presents The Tempest from November 8-16, 2024 at Hopeloft in Bridgeton. This version of the Shakespeare classic will be set in a modern, corporate business world with a twist of playful meddling magic.

Trapped by a bad storm, the owners of rival businesses, Sycorax and Milan, are forced to talk out their differences. Perhaps a new romance could spring up to merge these two companies? Perhaps that was the plan all along...

Performances take place Friday, November 8 at 8:00pm; Saturday, November 9 at 2:00pm & 8:00pm; Sunday, November 10 at 2:00pm; Thursday, November 14 at 7:30pm; Friday, November 15 at 8:00pm; and Saturday, November 16 at 2:00pm.  Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door. Tickets are available for purchase online. Doors open 30 minutes before showtime. Hopeloft is located at 40 East Commerce Street in Bridgeton, New Jersey.

For the Whim Productions (est. 2019) is a nonprofit community theatre & special event organization based in South Jersey.

Funding has been made possible in part by the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Cumberland County Board of Commissioners through the Cumberland County Cultural Heritage Fund.
