Unravelling the Tragic Tale of Macbeth This October
Teatru Manoel’s Learning and Participation Programme, Toi Toi, is presenting a new and exciting production of Macbeth on Friday 18 October at 7.30pm at St Agatha’s Auditorium, Rabat.
Adapted and directed by Philip Leone Ganado, this production features a cast of characters played by a talented troupe of actors including Anton Saliba as Macbeth and Michela Farrugia as Lady Macbeth with Joseph Zammit, Alex Weenink, Kelly Peplow and Katrina Lupi sharing all the other parts.
There’s a reason Macbeth is and has always been one of Shakespeare’s most popular plays. This classic story of ambition, power and consequence remains as relevant today as it has ever been, its supernatural elements remain as dangerously alluring and its warnings on the nature of evil as timely.
It is also a deeply psychological play, charting the unravelling of two people who allow themselves to be seduced into acts of unspeakable horror. This adaptation seeks to tap into this horror, tracking Macbeth and Lady Macbeth into the depths of their darkness and sticking close as the walls begin to close in and their downfall unfolds.
Whether Macbeth was, or is, on your study list or whether you are a theatre lover and/or would like to explore the beautiful world of Shakespeare this is the production for you.
