A struggling and divided nation, tearing itself apart. So, when the Macbeths see their chance at the crown, why shouldn't they take it?
But things don’t go according to plan. Dreams quickly turn to nightmares, humanity erodes, nature stirs. As society strives to make sense of the darkness inside, how long will it take for people to fight against the endless cycle of violence and corruption?
A visceral and contemporary new production that speaks to a world we find ourselves living in now, and asks why Macbeth has haunted our fears and nightmares for centuries and what lesson is this cautionary tale still urgently trying to communicate to us?
Content Guidance: This production contains strobe lighting and other strong lighting effects, as well as loud noises.
There are also scenes of murder, infanticide, inference of child loss, stage blood, and violence against women.
