Chamber Macbeth
Work:: Chamber Macbeth (S0799898104)
Macbeth becomes everything that Hamlet struggled to fight against. He is the corruption of himself, defiling everything that approaches him, everything that sees him, everything that he touches. A profound study in the psychology of evil; a study of the Fall of Man, from Macbeth's initial condition of innocence and loyalty, the play traces his descent from the moment of his temptation to the moment of his death. Unrelenting - from its supernatural beginning to its violent conclusion - Macbeth is Shakespeare's darkest and bloodiest work.
Production:: (T485277545)
The Chamber Shakespeare Cycle is William Shakespeare’s - perhaps the world’s - four greatest tragedies presented as one complete dramatic cycle. A six-hour epic with three intervals of 15 minutes each. It is the culmination of 6 months of research followed by 11 months of rehearsals. A cast of 3 relatively young actors will play a total of 41 speaking characters in 4 plays every day for 25 days for a total of 100 performances. No other production before has ever attempted to present the plays in such a way. Of course, each play is self-contained and unique. But now, for the first time, by presenting them as fours parts - or movements - of the one Cycle, the audience is offered the opportunity to watch these great plays as a tetralogy of Shakespeare’s tragic vision. The plays are not just presented in chronological order. Rather, they have been arranged according to an aesthetic and tragic design. 75 mins approx. no interval
