Macbeth by William Shakespeare
Berkeley Art Center Berkeley, CA
Macbeth by William Shakespeare Directed by Jeremy Cole In a tight, streamlined version that keeps the action constant and the tension high. Macbeth - considered the most concise yet darkest of Shakespeare's four tragedies - tells the tale of the heroic Scottish general and his successful but ill-fated quest for the throne of Scotland. In the play, Macbeth and fellow general Banquo are visited by three witches, who prophesy that Macbeth will become Thane of Cawdor and then King of Scotland. When the first of these prophesies comes true, Lady Macbeth persuades her husband to murder King Duncan and become King sooner - rather that later. This bloody deed sets off a series of bloody events, as Macbeth's ambition and quest for power grows.
