Wednesday, next week, we’ll watch a (quite) free adaptation of Macbeth by the Avalon Theatre Company. Quoting:
»Our touring production of Macbeth, a fifty five-minute presentation, is a “play within
a play.” Set in Dunsinane Castle, Scotland in 1606, students will watch Shakespeare directing actors who are rehearsing his new play, Macbeth. Avalon Theatre’s professional actors, playing multiple roles, will perform key scenes from, Macbeth bringing to life some of the most famous and powerful language ever written. At the same time the audience will find much to laugh at as our professional actors get into all sorts of problems with the story and with each other.»
I’m sure you’ll enjoy the play. What's more some of you will actually get the chance to participate very actively…
