About Macbeth
From director Mara Sherman (A Two Woman Hamlet) and the Coil Project (Strange Tales) comes an audacious take on Macbeth. Just three actors and a bare stage create all the characters and locations of Shakespeare’s classic tale of supernatural evil. Running December 5th through 20th, Macbeth offers a witchy counterbalance for your usual holiday sweetness.
Important Information:
The show runs 85 minutes with no intermission, but the bathroom is easily accessible. The show is staged in a three-quarter thrust and almost every seat is a “front row” seat . If you need to stretch your legs out or prop them up for medical reasons we are happy to put you in the second row and provide a second chair if you would like.
There are a few very brief instances of lightning that involve quick flashing lights.
The seats in the Capitol Hill Arts Workshop have high arm rests and are approximately 24 inches wide. If you need a wider seat please let us know and we can do our best to accommodate you.
Death, murder, war, and grief are major plot points. If you would like a more detailed description please email Mara at [email protected].
