How did Shakespeare imagine he might be remembered? Transported back to the island he created in The Tempest, Shakespeare magically journeys through past plays and characters in a desperate attempt to convince both himself and the world of his lasting legacy. It has been suggested that after writing The Tempest, seen by many as Shakespeare's triumphant farewell to the stage, he struggled with writer's block and a growing sadness in his private life. Would all his previous successes count for nothing?
