We're
bringing the Red
Bull Theater experience right here to your computer,
in the palm of your hand, or on your smart TV. We're opening our
archive and sharing our celebrated 2019 production MAC
BETH for two weeks only from May 16-29, 2022.
This
production of William Shakespeare's MACBETH was adapted and
directed by Erica
Schmidt and features Sharlene Cruz,
Isabelle
Fuhrman, Sophie
Kelly-Hedrick, Ismenia
Mendes, AnnaSophia
Robb, Lily
Santiago, and Ayana
Workman.
On
an autumn afternoon, in an empty lot outside the city, seven girls
meet up to do a play. School uniform tartan transforms in this
American urban wasteland. The girls are witches, ghosts, and kings.
They hurl headlong into the unchecked passions of MACBETH —in
Shakespeare’s original text—as the line between real life and blood
fantasy quickly blurs. Through prophecies and smartphones, unexpected
resonances emerge from Shakespeare’s dark nightmare of ambition gone
awry. These young women discover what's done cannot be undone.
