 Macbeth, a captain in the Scottish army, is returning from a battle, a victory - when a seed is planted in his mind. A single thought, a suggestion, an idea that drives him to a cycle of murder. He is compelled to keep killing until he finds the final death that will end his waking nightmare and return to him "the season of all natures: sleep."
Macbeth relied on a new adaptation for 10 actors. Here is a world of moral corruption, where God is simply absent - people are left to their own spiritual devices. The resulting deterioration of ethics and virtue is a prophetic wake-up call to our own world as we vainly try to fill a spiritual void with money, technology and material distractions.
Directed by Stephen Drover, Macbeth featured Todd Thomson in the title role along with the design team of Francesca Albertazzi (set and costume) and Noah Drew (sound composition).
