New Mexico Shakespeare Festival presents “Macbeth”

The New Mexico Shakespeare Festival presents Macbeth, directed by Artistic Director Levi Gore, with Assistant Director Alexandra Avila and Stage Manager Donna M. Barra.

Set in the mid-1800s and inspired by New England iconography and American Gothic horror, this production of Macbeth takes audiences on a thrilling 1-hour-and-45-minute journey into the dangers of ambition and the terror of tyranny. Shakespeare’s haunting tragedy follows a celebrated general whose ambition, fueled by both prophecy and his wife’s urging, drives him toward murder and an ever-deepening descent into violence and paranoia.

Featuring sound and music by Owen Danan Martin, lighting design by Riley Lewis, props by Quinten Avila, costumes by Kaylee-Lynora Silcocks Gore, set design by Ryan Jason Cook, and fight choreography by Zane Barker, this promises to be a Macbeth that audiences won’t soon forget.

Join in costume for a special Halloween performance featuring pumpkin carving before the show, with audience-created pumpkins placed onstage to enhance the evening’s atmosphere.
