Details

The Devil Speaks True is a chilling visceral experience where you are cast as Banquo from Macbeth in a first person auditory adventure, tracing Banquo's journey from bloody battlefield to spectral banquet table. Sitting in a pitch-black space and wearing wireless headphones, you will be surrounded by a world created through binaural sound, video projection and a solo performer. The Devil Speaks True is a totally immersive experience offering an intimate perspective of a man struggling to come to terms with his place in a violent and tyrannical world. Focussing on the psychological effects on men returning home from war and the bond between soldiers, the production intersperses Shakespeare's text with interviews with ex-servicemen.
