“Something wicked this way comes,” warns the Second Witch as Macbeth approaches. The White Horse Theatre’s actors brought a different kind of “wicked” to the stage, delivering a superb performance of Shakespeare’s dark tragedy.
With just four actors, the company staged the entire play, shifting between roles with impressive skill. Their excellent acting kept the audience absorbed in Macbeth’s story of ambition and betrayal.
The production’s appealing design helped create a stark, unsettling world. A barren backdrop and a handful of props focused attention on the action, while the witches’ crow-like costumes gave them a striking presence.
Once more the White Horse Theatre delivered a memorable performance that showed just how powerfully Shakespeare can come to life on stage.
