This Spring, Commonwealth Shakespeare Company’s Stage2 is taking you to another world, unlike any you’ve seen before. Your destination is the planet of Verona where a familiar tale will unfold…
In Shakespeare’s classic tragedy, an unexpected prophecy sends Macbeth on a quest to become King of Scotland. Consumed by ambition and prompted to action by his wife, Macbeth’s desire for power makes him blind to the cost.
