DIXIE STATE PRESENTS MACBETH Wednesday, 02.03.2010, 01:47pm (GMT-6)
The
Dixie State College Department of Theatre is proud to present Macbeth, by
William Shakespeare, March 1-6 at the Eccles Fine Arts Building. Performances
begin at 7:30 p.m.
This
production of Shakespeare's classic play of betrayal and ambition explores the
pros and cons of the human driving spirit. How far is appropriate to go when
forwarding one's self to heretofore dreamed of heights? When that limit is
discovered and ultimately surpassed, is rectification possible? These questions
and many others are explored in detail in this innovative exploration of one of
the Bard's best-known works.
"This
production is fresh, new, and informative," says Michael Harding,
Assistant Professor of Theatre and Director of the play. "We have delved
beyond the existing text in an effort to understand better what Shakespeare was
saying. Some of our methods are outside of what most people consider 'normal
Shakespeare,' but by asking these questions in this way, we are learning a
tremendous amount. We hope our audiences will learn in turn."
Don't
miss out on this exciting opportunity to view Macbeth through a fresh and
innovative lens. For more information or tickets, call 435-652-7800.
