10th Annual Contemporary Performance Diasporas Festival: Roots in Movement

May 13-14, 2023

Rooted in Inferno’s mission to link cultures and explore human relationships, the festival has brought artists together, year after year, who are now based in the San Francisco Bay area but whose roots extend across the globe.

William Shakespeare’s
The Tempest

May 28-29 | June 3-4 | June 10-11, 2023

The Tempest investigates the destiny of theatre as it pushes theatrically to the limits, inviting the audience to abandon themselves to the magic of the island and its inhabitants. We create this imaginary island using live music, movement, and Shakespeare’s own poetic words and imagery, transporting the audience to an enchanted, magical world.
