Nothing to Be Afraid of

On a warm summer's evening in 1999, an earthquake strikes the heart of London. The epicentre of the tremor is a theatre, where a lavish production of The Tempest has just opened. In the cast are friends and enemies, among them a preening star, a drunken failure, and Martha, a young actress. In the audience sits her clever sister, Alice.As the shockwaves subside, the veil between the real and the imaginary is lifted, and magical forces of envy, ambition, madness, and romance invade the world.
