Segismundo is born a prince, but when prophecy predicts he will be a tyrant, his own father locks him in a tower. "[He] basically embarks on a crash-course to adulthood. In the beginning of the play, he is literally chained and cut off from the rest of the world" continues O'Donnell. "By the play's end he grows to a sturdy, self-actualized adult with a bright, however fragile, future."
