| Description |
Conceived of as an enactment of ritual, this production pays homage to the idea of a chosen sacrifice. Performed in the shadow of winter solstice, the Old Van's production is a nightmare within the head of Macbeth. This is the story of a man who, in killing another, kills himself for all time. |
