Terry Pratchett's WYRD SISTERS

Open Circle Theater
Seattle, WA

Open Circle Theater is pleased to present the stage adaptation of Terry Pratchett's cult Discworld novel, WYRD SISTERS, having its Seattle premiere June 25 through July 17.

WYRD SISTERS takes Macbeth and then turns it up 'till the knob comes off' (with healthy doses of Hamlet, Lear and Richard III implied as well). It's all there - a wicked duke and duchess, the ghost of the murdered king, dim soldiers, strolling players, a land in peril. And who stands between the Kingdom and destruction? Three powerful witches and a cartload of puns, jokes and lampooning. It's the "Scottish play" from the witches' perspective.

Terry Pratchett is the well known author of the Discworld novels, currently at 37 books and growing. The books are broad comic fantasies that follow actions in a place called Discworld, a vaguely medieval place, which is a flat world balanced on the back of four elephants and which is, in turn, on the back of a giant turtle. Each book is set in a different part of the Disc and generally parodies or is inspired by a different subject ("Wyrd Sisters" is MacBeth, "Maskerade" opera and Phantom, etc.). Currently the second most-read writer in the UK and seventh non-US author most-read in the US, Terry Pratchett and the Discworld series have gained an international cult following.
