Something wicked this way comes!
GRADS presents Garreth Bradshaw’s production of
William Shakespeare’s
Macbeth
New Fortune Theatre, UWA
7.30 pm 9 to 13 and 16 to 20 March
Macbeth is a haunting tale of regicide, murder, witchcraft, demons and spirits. Unrelenting in its pace, violence and supernatural themes, it is regarded by many critics as Shakespeare’s darkest tragedy.
Director Garreth Bradshaw (WAYTCo’s Life of Galileo, Upstart Theatre Company’s Taming of the Shrew) says, ‘I have no interest in creating a mediocre Macbeth. I want my audience to walk away having been truly frightened, shocked and deeply moved by the text… to have gone from this world into a world of frightening supernatural possibility and to return again having changed through the experience: this is the true aim of sublime theatre.’
His production draws inspiration from masters of modern cinema, such as Tarantino, Polanski, Hitchcock, Argento and Kurosawa, and theatrical styles and traditions such as the Grand Guignol, Theatre of Catastrophe and original Elizabethan practices. Bradshaw is exploiting the unique potential of the New Fortune, the southern hemisphere’s only replica Elizabethan theatre.
