DEVIL’S ISLE

Devil’s Isle Shakespeare Company was founded in 2023 to bring exceptional Shakespeare productions to Bermuda.

Our inaugural show, The Tempest, will celebrate the discovery of the island (the inspiration for the play, written in 1611) and provide—in addition to world class entertainment—myriad opportunities for Bermudian students and theatre-lovers to study and engage with the play and our acting company. The production will feature original music by Emily Erickson & Séamus Miller.

Devil’s Isle is committed to promoting social justice and access to the arts, in accordance with our values of Exploration, Equality, & Excellence. We provide safe spaces for artists and audience members of every background, orientation, and identity. Everyone is welcome here.
