Macbeth
Three of Cups Theatre Company presents Macbeth, the age-old story of tyranny, fate, and the destructive nature of unchecked power. Inspired by the world of Samuel Beckett, this production will explore the intersection of fate, destiny, and our own concept of will-power. Do we have any control over our destiny or are our webs woven from the beginning? Macbeth examines the timeless and timely theme of the moral degradation of man, especially when one stops at nothing to achieve their ambitions.
Three of of Cups Theatre Company is excited to announce the beginning of their inaugural season with the production of Macbeth. In this adaptation, the cast take on the infamous tyrant in a new way. Pulling inspiration from Samuel Beckett and the theatre of the absurd, this production focuses on the cyclical nature of power, tyranny, and the desires of man.
