“The Real Lady Macbeth” by Coco Blignaut and Edison Park.
In Shakespeare’s “Scottish play,” Lady Macbeth suffers a misogynistic depiction as a murderous, greedy, overambitious villain.
The Real Lady Macbeth asserts that the true, historical Lady Macbeth is more complex and far more interesting. Born of royal blood, she is powerful Druid queen with skills of prophecy and divination based on ancient Celtic pagan traditions (It’s the 11h Century; Christianity hasn’t yet completely replaced the old ways). Lady Macbeth’s motivations are direct: to protect her husband, her child, and her ancestral lands, Fife and Moray, from those who would do them harm. Her story will end far differently than in Shakespeare’s fiction.
Directed by Sofia Streisand.
