Set in the 1930s, with influences from the Hollywood Golden Age of Glamour, Universal Horror Films and Film Noir, MACBETH 2011 explores the darkness of classic Shakespeare work.

What would you do for power, riches and worldwide glory? For Macbeth and his wife, nothing will stand in their way. After all, on the path to greatness, what?s one more murder, more or less?

Follow the deadly duo on their dark, spiraling journey through the occult, transcendental bloodlust and murder... and ultimately...to madness. March 2011...something wicked this way comes.
