“Where we are, there are daggers in men’s smiles…”
War hero and man of honour, Macbeth is the toast of the nation. But when it is suggested that he should be king, well… In the pursuit of your ambitions, sometimes you’ve got to get your hands dirty.
This dark and stripped-back production, whilst abridged, stays true to Shakespeare’s gripping and visceral original. War. Witchcraft. Murder. Ghosts. This is a play that will get your blood pumping.
“Blood will have blood…”
After studying theatre at the University of New England, Alex co-founded a theatre company with a strong focus on youth engagement with the arts. Working as a producer, director, actor and playwright, he staged numerous productions, including three works by Shakespeare. In 2014, he devised A Short Guide to Shakespeare to celebrate the Bard’s 450th birthday, which he then took on a tour across the state. In 2016, still just as obsessed, he devised Shakespeare’s Villains: Everyone But Iago, to commemorate the 400th anniversary of his death. That same year he won an international scholarship to study Shakespeare at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London. He is delighted to be sharing his obsession with Shakespeare with you and your students.
