Missing is Shelley MacKenney's remarkable story of life as a 'missing person'. An inspirational tale of her journey through extreme personal crisis. "You can run, but you can't hide from yourself." Abandoned by her mother as a young child and with a father constantly on the run, Shelley's life was never normal. Her family's involvement with South London's criminal underworld left her isolated, vulnerable and lonely. Falling deeper and deeper into depression and despair - she snapped. Shelley got on the first coach out of London with only the clothes she stood up in and £30 in her pocket. She didn't care where she was going, as long as she could disappear completely from her oppressive life. For years, she lived anonymously in refuges, hostels and on the streets. It would take something remarkable to bring her back to the real world.

The Tempest, die Geschichte von dem entmachteten und vertriebenen Herzog von Mailand, der im Exil auf einer Insel im Meer eine neue Herrschaft errichtet und durch Magie alle seine Feinde in seine Gewalt bringt, ist eines der faszinierendsten und vieldeutigsten Dramen Shakespeares. Es ist wechselweise als romantisches Märchen- und Zauberstück, als persönliche Abschiedsbotschaft des Dichters in seinem letzten großen Werk, als Parabel von Großmut und Vergebung und als Lehrstück über das Unrecht der Kolonialherrschaft gedeutet und inszeniert worden. Es reizt immer noch zu neuen Interpretationen und Aufführungsweisen.
