ABOUT THE PLAY
Scotland’s most infamous king and queen are coming to dinner for this intimate and innovative new staging of Shakespeare’s tragedy. An undergraduate thesis project from University of Texas student Rosalind Faires, Macbeth takes the form of a dinner party hosted by the Witches, where audiences are invited to dine alongside those vying for Scotland’s throne. Featuring a multi-generational cast and elegant designs from Ia Enstera and Jason Amato, the play examines the rules of hospitality and the fragile balance between love and personal ambition.
