MACBETH
by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
“By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes…”
The Three Witches, Macbeth
5 ACTORS, 19 CHARACTERS, 70 MINUTES OF MURDER MOST FOUL
We’ve cut the Bard’s psychological thriller down to a sizzling 70 minutes. Brilliant young general Macbeth has pulled off a glorious victory in battle, but before he can return to King Duncan’s court, he encounters a most enticing prophecy. Spurred on by his ambitious wife, Macbeth sets his sights on the throne, but as blood begets blood, he soon learns there is no rest for the wicked.
