Macbeth
March 5 – April 19, 2015
By WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
Directed by ALEXANDER BURNS
On the F. Otto Haas Stage
Fueled by ambition, Macbeth cuts a bloody path to power, spurred on by his wife, Lady Macbeth and a prophecy that he will be king. Before House of Cards and Game of Thrones there was Macbeth. One of Shakespeare’s most thrilling and beloved plays, Macbeth will mark the Arden directorial debut of Alexander Burns, an exciting young director acclaimed for his revelatory productions of Shakespeare at Quintessence Theatre, and features Ian Merrill Peakes in the title role.
