“This was my visceral way into this world—where everyone fears the women who tell the truth about the future.”
Playwright Migdalia Cruz
In Migdalia Cruz's Macbeth, the Witches run the world. The Macbeths live out a dark cautionary tale of love, greed and power, falling from glory into calamity as the Witches spin their fate. Translating Shakespeare's language for a modern audience, Nuyorican playwright Migdalia Cruz reimagines Macbeth, giving this tragedy new light. Contains adult content and depictions of violence. Parental discretion advised. This translation of Shakespeare’s MACBETH was a commission of Play On Shakespeare through The Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Bill Rauch, Artistic Director. It was underwritten through the generous support of The Hitz Foundation.
