It's like a book club for films. Watch this play in advance on Curio, then join the discussion.
Stream the movie from home on Curio, then join the Film Forum Online to talk about it. After you register, an invitation with instructions on how to join the online group follows via email. It includes a link to join the Microsoft Teams meeting at the scheduled date and time. An HPL card is required. Need one? Get it online.
To stream from Curio, create an account with an email address and a password. Instructions here. Once you've created your account, log in and search for The Tempest on the Curio website. Your search result will be a film of a 2019 Stratford Festival performance of the play.
The discussion will be about this version of the play, with Martha Henry in the role of Prospero. There are two other versions of The Tempest on Kanopy, as well as two documentaries about the play.
The 2021 Hamilton Reads title, Blaze Island by Catherine Bush, is a modern retelling of The Tempest.
