 921 - 103 6305 oder an vorverkauf@soest.de\n\nADG Europe presents TNT Thea
 tre Britain in: The tragedy of MACBETH By William Shakespeare Directed by 
 Paul Stebbings \n\nIf MACBETH is not the finest play ever written\, it is 
 certainly the most performed. The play explores the corruption of power an
 d its terrifying results\, both politically and personally. \n\nBut while 
 the themes are profound and complex\, the form is hugely entertaining: thi
 s is a thriller\, a war story\, a romance\, a nightmare\, a horror story a
 nd a most powerful presentation of the supernatural. \n\nThe witches ride 
 above this play as both demons and restorers of the natural order that MAC
 BETH and his murderous wife seek to destroy. The evil that the royal coupl
 e unleash rebounds upon themselves and\, by means of the most extraordinar
 y poetry\, we\, the audience\, watch the collapse of naked ambition into t
 ortured self-doubt and ultimate insanity. \n\nTNT’s production\, directe
 d by Paul Stebbings\, was the company’s first Shakespeare production. Th
 e production has been so successful that it has been constantly revived an
 d toured worldwide since 2001 to over forty countries on four continents. 
 \n\nThis might be the most performed production of MACBETH this century. A
 udiences have thrilled to this production from London to Atlanta\, from Be
 ijing to Berlin\, from El Salvador to Thailand and from Australia to Norwa
 y. \n\nThis is a full-blooded version of the play\, witch driven in its in
 tensity. The production is not frightened of the supernatural\, or comprom
 ised by modern dress. But this is not an old fashioned production either\;
  the musical score by Paul Flush drives the play forward and creates a com
 pelling sound texture of almost filmic quality. \n\nForest and castle merg
 e and melt. The witches are an almost constant presence\, neither male nor
  female (or both) and as ruthless as Greek Furies. The acting is fast and 
 physical. Above all the production releases the poetic intensity of Shakes
 peare\, writing at the height of his powers. The play is not so much inter
 preted as elucidated\, exposing its universal truths. \n\nIn our modern wo
 rld where power seems divorced from morality and the irrational seems to s
 weep all before it\, this mighty drama reminds us that we are not only cor
 rupted but diminished by evil. For without a moral compass we shall be lik
 e MACBETH the murderous monarch: \n\n“Out brief candle…life is but a p
 oor player who struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard 
 no more\, It is a tale told by an idiot\, full of sound and fury\, Signify
 ing nothing.” “Feral cries pierce he air…from the very first moment 
 of this MACBETH\, the audience were held is a vice like grip” JAPAN TIME
 S \n\n“I never knew Shakespeare could be so entertaining” CNN TV \n\n
 “World class theatre”. The Observer UK.
