"Double, double toil and trouble. Fire burn and cauldron bubble."
This fresh look at Macbeth continues SITI's interest in bold new approaches to Shakespeare (like their 2004 production of A Midsummer Night's Dream) and to the idea of radio plays (launched with their 2003 take on Orson Welles's and the Mercury Theater on the Air's legendary broadcast of War of the Worlds). A world of dramatic sound effects and musical figures enlivens the foreground for the radio play concept, as SITI's superb sound designer, Darron L West, codirects Radio Macbeth with Anne Bogart. Join in welcoming the company for their sixth Wexner Center–sponsored creative residency.
