The Tempest at Colorado Shakespeare Festival is a visually stunning, anti-colonial fairy tale
Toni Trescal | ONSTAGE COLORADO
“Jordan Coughtry’s Ariel is the production’s other standout. A constant musical presence, Coughtry scores the play live with mandolin and other instruments, weaving Shakespeare’s lyrics into new compositions that echo through the theater like wind through trees.”
“Ariel’s music is the magic here, and Coughtry uses it to beguile, to haunt and eventually to plead for his own freedom. His performance really makes you care about the character, which makes his final parting with Prospera all the more affecting.”

Tempest
John Moore | ARTS COVERAGE
“Seriously, everything works in this musically infused ‘Once’ meets Shakespeare.”

“In this case the heavenly music was composed and performed by Jordan Coughtry in his role as Ariel. This addition to the production introduces action, sets the mood for both endearing and amusing scenes, and accompanies scenes both quiet and rowdy. A great enhancement overall.”
