Department of Visual and Performing Arts presents "Macbeth"

What happens in a digital age where kings, king-makers, and the population itself suffer from an increasing paranoia about enemies, both foreign and homegrown?

Shakespeare's classic drama about unbridled ambition and political machinations receives a fresh treatment by The Genesis Project (last season's "The 9/11 Effect"). Presented in the original language and featuring a cast of studentss, alumni, and associate actors of Merrimack Theater, this "Macbeth" is a dark look at the psychology of ambition and madness.

Parental note: Contains images of graphic violence. Not appropriate for those under 15 years of age.
