In a world consumed by shadows and claustrophobia, "The Tragedy of Macbeth" asks a chilling question: What happens when unchecked ambition leads to getting everything you’ve ever desired? Director Michael McCall guides his cast in exploring the intricate and often terrifying relationship between the Macbeths, revealing lives rich with contradiction, fantasy and subterfuge.
“Shakespeare masterfully bends the poetic form in The Tragedy of Macbeth to expose a deep, visceral horror,” says director Michael McCall. “This production will move at the pace of a Hitchcockian thriller, crafting a distinctly modern experience that will shock and delight fans of both Shakespeare and contemporary dramas like Succession.”
Performed at the Curtin University’s Hayman Theatre, this production offers a fresh, intimate and compelling perspective on Shakespeare’s masterpiece.
Don’t miss this gripping and insightful exploration of power, guilt and the unravelling of the human psyche.
