Where is the line dividing one man's illusion from another's nervous reality? The characters challenge one another with wit or wails, verve or violence. The conversations are filled with sparkling convolutions of thought and the dart-filled flashes of truth of the truly desperate. | |||||

Notes: | BTS Artistic Director Andrew Hobbs, who will direct this production, says 'we are honoured to be staging the premiere of this major new work which looks at the characters of such a well known play from a very exciting new perspective. As well as keeping the classics alive for audiences around the world, it is an important part of what we do to bring new Shakespeare-related material to the stage, and we are delighted to be working with an author of Gloria's stature at this year's Camden Fringe' | |||||
| This exciting new play is set immediately before the events of Shakespeare's classic tragedy Macbeth. Authentic writing in the style of Shakespeare himself combines with painstaking historical research into the period concerned to shed dynamic new light on the characters of this well loved classic. Both tone and subject matter make this play an interesting approach to Shakespeare's theatre and the universal truths with which we must deal. Andrew Hobbs, Artistic Director of British Touring Shakespeare | |||||
