Synopsis

Shakespeare's Macbeth as you have never seen it. Desire and deception rule when Elizabeth discovers that the man she loved led a double life. Spurred on by her son, she plots revenge and seeks out the truth. But as desperation mounts, her fragile world falls apart. Director: Vladimir Cara Cast: Angela Potvin, Vladimir Cara Audience: General Audience Warning: content

Review

Reviewed by: Jordan Bimm

Inspired by a certain Scottish play, this intense two-hander shows just how far Elizabeth will go to claim inheritance that her late husband diverted to his secret lover’s family. While some plot points seem rushed, or not fully thought through, heartfelt performances trump these minor flaws.
