Shakespeare's tragedy about Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, who murder their way to power and titles in medieval Scotland, is staged by Københavns Shakespeare Kompagni in a new, intimate production.
The cast includes Marcus Christensen, Sarah Dahl Hasselgren, Christina Hildebrandt, Thomas Knuth-Winterfeldt and Joseph Sherlock, who also designs the set. Hasselgren is responsible for the costumes. The production is performed in the original English.
The show is a gruesome portrait of a power-hungry elite willing to sacrifice anyone for its goal, and it remains unsettlingly relevant more than 400 years after it was written.
