Murray's Fools Distilling Company
7152 Amsterdam RoadThis version of Macbeth treats the play as essentially a domestic drama situated in a densely conflicted political environment, with a tighter focus on the actions of and relationship between Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. As in Greek tragedy, it matters that the characters are kings and queens, but it matters more that they are spouses, parents (or not), and sons. Practical Foley effects, music, and evocative design promise to make this a singularly unique retelling of this story. This version is a one-act Macbeth.
The play runs about 90 minutes with no intermission.
