Paradiso 6 - The Tragedy of Madbeth (Theatreact)
One man, One throne, One crown, One hilariously tragic experience.
Amidst thunder and lightening, three witches meet with Beth and Banquo, From there on Beth tries his best to live up to all the prophesies with his imaginary friend Banquo. Together they narrate this murderous tale sincerely.
Welcome to a roller coaster ride in the world created by Beth and Banquo. The Tragedy of Madbeth is a highly interactive physical comedy inspired by Shakespeare’s classic. A profound allegory that dissolves the space between observer and performer. The performance is a combination of slapstick, acrobatics, mime, songs and improvisations.
The Tragedy of Madbeth is a devised theatre piece. It has been played for a wide range of audience in Europe, Israel, West Bank and India. The play was invited by UNESCO Centre for Peace to tour in USA (2012). The Performance has been staged for The Ministry of youth affairs, Uttarakhand Government, India in February 2013.
