Macbeth
Theatre
Description
Description
A modern couple dreams that they enter the universe of Macbeth in the buried past of ancient China, assuming the roles of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth and encountering different characters in the play.
When Three Witches tell Macbeth that he is destined for the throne of Scotland, he and his wife kill the first man standing in their path, the virtuous King Duncan. But to maintain his position, Macbeth must keep on killing – first Banquo, his old comrade-in-arms; then, as the atmosphere of guilt and paranoia thickens, anyone who seems to threaten his tyrant’s crown.
On leaving the dream, where the couple has experienced the dark side of humanity, they contemplates their places in this contemporary realm of turbulence.
