Macbeth

Details

The Scottish Play - theatrical types consider saying its name to be unlucky! Thrust into power by his overwhelming desires and an over ambitious wife, Macbeth finds his only security is to murder and murder again. From "When shall we three meet again" to "is this a dagger I see before me" a powerful Shakespearean drama. Baz Productions breathes new life into Macbeth whilst honouring the verse of this classic text. Hidden in the underground crypt of St Andrew, Holborn, Baz play the text and the 'game' like new. A small company of actors work to immerse the audience in a unique experience in a performance space like no other, swapping roles and locations as the story unfurls. Influenced by the sporting world, Baz aspires to make theatre that holds the tension and power of a sporting event. We see the focus of a highly trained athlete single-mindedly using every inch of their training to reach their goal. We see the fans of all ages that passionately support, defend and adore their teams. Baz uses this focus as our inspiration.
