By William Shakespeare
Directed by Erin McBride Africa
After fighting in horrific battles, General MacBeth and General Banquo encounter a trio of supernatural witches as they cross a moor. The witches prophesy that Macbeth will be made thane (a rank of Scottish nobility) of Cawdor and eventually King of Scotland. Macbeth and Banquo treat their prophecies skeptically until some of King Duncan’s men come to thank the two generals for their victories in battle and to tell Macbeth that he has indeed been named thane of Cawdor. Macbeth is intrigued by the possibility that the remainder of the witches’ prophecy might be true, but he is uncertain what to expect... Written nearly 400 years ago, this story is full of lies, supernatural portents, devious planning, murder, a ghostly sighting, revenge, and many power struggles! Macbeth is a classic tale that you won't want to miss!
