Thiruvananthapuram: Seven actors of the Footsban Theatre from France arrived here today to rehearse alongwith Indian artistes for the `Indian Tempest`, a re-make of the English play by William Shakespeare.
The play is to be performed in collaboration between Indian and French actors as a part of the Guilmaraes 2012 European Capital of Culture.
