The Scottish Play
Inspired by Macbeth by William Shakespeare
Adapted by Lauren Abramson and Esme Allen
Directed by Esme Allen
Starring Lauren Abramson
"A Shakespearean tragedy so cursed we can't even speak the name aloud. A Scottish general is prophesied to be crowned King; ruthless ambition, paranoia, and tyranny ensue. Is it his fault? Is it his wife's fault? And who is this actor who demands we watch her onstage for an entire evening, who cut Shakespeare's script to pieces, who refuses to take a scene partner and instead claims two roles in one body?"
