on the abbey stageMacbethWILLIAM SHAKESPEAREOver 400 years after it was written, Shakespeare’s darkdepiction of ambition, guilt and murder continues tosend a shiver down the spine.Macbeth’s sword is still wet with blood when he returns victorious from battle, a loyal servantto his King and a hero amongst his comrades. But when three weird sisters cross his pathwith mysterious prophecies, Shakespeare’s fearful tragic hero comes face to face with hismost fierce opponent yet – his destiny.Swayed by promises of greatness and the demands of a power-hungry wife, Macbethstorms his way to power – and moral decay.Rooted in the Irish landscape at the time of Cromwell, this muscular new production fromdirector Jimmy Fay (The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, The Playboy of the Western World, Agesof the Moon) lays bare the darkest side of human nature.Macbeth continues our commitment to presenting the work of William Shakespeareand follows our productions of Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar and The Comedy of Errors.Aidan Kelly will play Macbeth and Eileen Walsh will play Lady Macbeth in this thrillingnew production.7 April – 15 MayPreviews: 30 March – 6 April(No performances Friday 2 or Monday 5 April)7.30pm, Saturday matinee 2pmTickets: €13 – €38Book now on (01) 87 87 222or www.abbeytheatre.ieAssisted performances:Sign language interpreted performance:Wednesday 5 May, 2pmAudio described and captioned performance:Saturday 15 May, 2pmsee page 28 for more informationMatinee Club:Saturday 15 May, 2pmsee page 24 for more informationDirector: Jimmy FaySet design: Paul O’MahonyLighting design: Paul KeoganCostume design: Catherine FaySound design and Original music: Philip StewartFight director: Paul BurkeCast: Malcolm Adams, Ian-Lloyd Anderson,Charlie Bonner, Robert Donnelly, Gavin Fullam,Andrea Irvine, John Kavanagh, Gráinne Keenan,Aidan Kelly, Phil Kingston, Ronan Leahy,Michael McElhatton, Diarmaid Murtagh,Kate Nic Chonaonaigh, Bríd Ní Neachtain,Rory Nolan, Jason Quinn, Karl Shiels, Eileen WalshFor more information visit:www.bebo.com/macbeth_abbey6
