  3. Macbeth


Thirst comes in many flavors. Some men thirst for power and the taste is so strong they cannot see or hear reason for the want of it. Some thirst for revenge and the urge is so primal that weapons are soon wet with blood. Others just plain thirst for water, as they live in a time when to drink the water we take for granted is death, though it comes from faucets and rivers and lakes that once were fresh and clean and safe.

Macbeth, as presented by The Artistic Home, finds himself living in a world where all this is true. Inspired by the water crisis currently emerging right here in the Great Lakes region, Artistic Home ensemble member and director Scott Westerman has crafted a world where there is too much water and none of it is any good. Toxic, in fact. Clans scratch and claw for survival, Great Brita has a stronghold on the only source of clean water, and control of it is a deadly scheme that becomes one man’s undoing.
