Shakespeare's "Macbeth" is a swift and relentless tragedy that uncovers the terrifying consequences of blind ambition. A dark prophecy leads a warrior and his wife past the point of no return, in a world of ghosts, witches and battlefields. It is set in medieval Scotland.
Shakespeare's great story telling, compelling characters, catchy phrasing and illumination of the human experience all come to light in this production, directed by Ed Meehan, Acalanes' drama teacher.
Performances are at 7 p.m., with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $12 for adults, $7 for students and seniors. Tickets are available in April during lunch at Acalanes High School and online at ahsperformingarts.org. There will be limited ticket sales available day of the show.
