The Bard goes glam in Marc Evans’ rollicking addition to the "Let’s put on a show!" stable of films. In 1976 Swansea, a drama teacher (a particularly inspired Minnie Driver) combats student apathy by giving The Tempest a Top of the Pops/Glee transfusion. Joby Talbot’s arrangements of early 70s hits may bring a tear to your eye. "Sentimental, sweet-natured and daft as a brush… the whole film is shot in a Hipstamatic retro-nostalgia glow."—Guardian
