Santa Cruz Shakespeare's Macbeth


Dark, bloody, brutal, and magnificent, Shakespeare’s Macbeth is one of the greatest plays ever written. Its central couple, ironically, is one of Shakespeare’s happiest. At least at the beginning. Where Much Ado shows us the coming together of antagonists, Macbeth explores what we become when our second half is ripped away. A powerful unit, wildly in love with each other, the Macbeths follow the insinuations of the witches - the famous weird sisters - and commit murder in the name of their shared ambition: the throne of Scotland. But even with their goal achieved, Macbeth’s paranoia and guilt lead him further down the road of blood. The central unit tears apart under the shadow of its deeds. Who are these two without each other? Slowly and surely, the play shows us society's ruin in the form of its leading pair. Macbeth will star Dan Donohue in the title role and Paige Lindsey White as Lady Macbeth. Macbeth runs July 12 - August 30. Tickets available for purchase starting May 1.
