MST Brings Canadian Theater Company To Houston
Main Street Theater (MST) is bringing Canadia theater company La Fille Du Laitier and its production of Macbeth Muet to Houston November 1 - 11. MST Artistic Director Rebecca Greene Udden first saw La Fille Du Laitier's Macbeth Muet in New York last fall and was captivated by their innovation and ingenuity. "You've just never seen anything quite like it!" says Udden. "And the show is hilarious!"
Macbeth Muet runs November 1 - 11 at MST - Rice Village, 2540 Times Blvd. Performances are Thursdays - Saturdays at 7:30pm; Sunday, November 4 at 5:00pm; and Sunday, November 11 at 3pm. Tickets are $36 - $48, depending on date, section, and availability. All tickets are on sale via phone at 713.524.6706 or online at MainStreetTheater.com.
There will be an MST Part of the Art Series Post-Show Discussion with Dr. Elizabeth Klett on November 2. Join us for a discussion with Dr. Klett, Shakespeare scholar and Associate Professor of Literature, University of Houston - Clear Lake will give a short talk about Shakespeare in the context of physical theatre vs dance.
About Macbeth Muet
Shakespeare's classic is performed entirely without words as the ultimate power couple is transformed through their dark and fateful choices in this hilarious, high-speed romp of object theatre, dance, and pure madness. For ages 13+
About La Fille Du Laitier
La Fille du Laitier is a theatre delivery service, "bringing creative and innovative theatre to your doorstep! We want to reinterpret and reimagine theatre classics, bringing them to a modern audience, both young and old, at an affordable price. La Fille du Laitier believes in reclaiming our right to madness, and the freedom of the imagination!" www.lafilledulaitier.com
While the production at Main Street will be performed in the theater itself, La Fille du Laitier generally performs out of a mobile theatre truck, just like the food trucks you see around any city. Performances could happen at any time, surprising the community with performances they might not normally get the chance to see. Their goal is to initiate people from the community into art they might not normally go out to experience, or have the money to afford.
