The vicious, barbaric undercurrent in
Shakespeare's epic erupts in this
kinetic, blood thirsty production. Victorious
on the battlefield, Macbeth's nobility and
bravery are rewarded by an indebted
king. But in each enemy slaughtered to
serve Macbeth's own vaulting ambition,
his lust for power takes a deadly turn
until he ferociously usurps the kingdom.
His reign, baptised in blood, spirals
out of control and Macbeth's deeds
come back to tear him down.

This new, slick production goes straight
for the jugular; perfect for audiences new
to Macbeth and those already well
acquainted with Shakespeare's tragedies,
