TIFTON—The cast has been set, and rehearsals are underway for the Baldwin Players’ spring production of “The Tempest” on March 7-9 at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College.
Dr. Brian Ray, director of the Baldwin Players, said “The Tempest” is sure to bring Howard Auditorium to life during this spectacular performance.
“Filled with magic, hidden powers and supernatural beings, this Shakespearean performance will send the audience’s imagination on a spiraling journey through the sands of a remote island,” Ray said. “The plot features Prospero, a sorcerer, and Antonio, his evil brother, in a conniving performance.”
Prospero will be played by Peter Pinnow from Tifton. Caroline Kirkland, a biology major from Tifton, will star as Miranda. Alan Milton from Tifton will be featured as Alonso, and Luke Hillman, a history and government major from Sparks, will star as Caliban.
Corey Douglas, a student from Sylvester aiming for his associate of fine arts degree in instrumental music, will play the role of Antonio. Sebastian will be played by Jeffrey Murray, a theatre major from Camilla, and Hannah Moseley, an agricultural communication major from Cochran, will star as Ariel. A recent graduate of ABAC, Ty Gore from Tifton, will play Ferdinand.
Craig Wells from Tifton will play Gonzalo, and Angel Rewis, a history and modern culture major from Homerville, will play the role of Stephano. Hayli Ary, a nursing major from Valdosta, will be featured as Trinculo, and Boatswain will be played by Joshua Rogers from Tifton.
Tickets are available at a cost of $10 per person at the door. Admission for students, faculty, and staff is free with a valid ABAC ID. For more information, interested persons can contact Ray at bray@abac.edu or at (229) 391-4969.
