Macbeth
January 19 - February 12, 2017
Overview
Lord & Lady Macbeth are very much in love - the envy of the Scottish nobility. He's an extraordinary warrior who's tough, witty, and honorable. She's his lovely, charming, soul mate who wants what's best for him. Macbeth is the story of how they lose their souls, in haunting, blood-spattered detail.
Fueled by ambition, Macbeth performs unspeakable acts when three strange and beautiful Witches appear with promises of greatness. One murder leads to another; and another, and still more in this shockingly modern tale of brutality, eroticism, and the supernatural.
The renowned Frog & Peach Theatre Company present Shakespeare's most terrifying tale of blood, war, and witchcraft: MACBETH. Don't see it alone.
Founded by members of The Actors Studio, Frog & Peach Theatre Company has been turning New Yorkers of all incomes and backgrounds on to the pleasures of Shakespeare with breathtaking performances, cinematic pace, and gorgeous production values.
Frog & Peach takes a very different, thought provoking view on Shakespeare's best known work.

Every one of the players proves that in the right hands Shakespeare can be laugh-out-loud funny - the text often feels as if it could have been written today.
