Witchcraft, insanity, manipulation and medieval justice…
This is the classic tale of Macbeth, the story of a Scottish nobleman whose gallant code of honour is soon awash in the spilt blood of his friends and family. Treachery and deceit descend like a dark fog upon a once self-sacrificing man, whose corrupt fate drives him, his love and his nation into violence and disaster.
The dramatic simplicity of this special concert production of Macbeth delivers a powerful and contemporary edge to Giuseppe Verdi’s potent operatic rendition of the age-old Scottish tale.
Shakespeare’s horrific and erotic narrative of blind ambition in 11th century Scotland has captured the hearts and imaginations of audiences for centuries. Everyone from operatic master Verdi to hip hoppers like the Wu-Tang Clan has had their own take on Macbeth. Discover the intoxicating brew of sex, song and power in this unique concert production.
Macbeth in Concert is sung in Italian with projected English subtitles.
