Our production of “Treasure Island” may have just closed, but that doesn’t mean we have nothing to look forward to. This September at Synetic marks the triumphant return of “The Tempest,” originally produced in 2013 to rave reviews. In order to celebrate its return, here are 5 GIFs from the original trailer to get you hyped up.

Who’s excited for piano fountain magic??

And the joy of splashing around in our ONSTAGE POOL!!

We can’t wait to see some sick costumes such as this.

And the lovable moments.

As one of the nation’s only physical theater companies, Synetic has produced some pretty interesting stuff over the years. Keep scrolling to see some of our coolest moments in the best internet way we know how - GIFS!

Who among us doesn’t love some classic pantomiming alla Cyrano de Bergerac?

Or our legendary production of The Tempest complete with a full pool stage. 

This makes us wish we had a dragon.

And oh how we love a badass female lead. 

If there isn’t any sword fighting choreo, is it even a Synetic show?

Or just any cool choreo, really.

Relatable.

1. Stay calm.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2. Don’t panic.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3. Grab a buddy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

4. Find shelter.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

5. Worse comes to worse, you can always just run away.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

6. But when in doubt, it’s best to dance in the rain.
