The production reexamines the historical figure who inspired Shakespeare’s Lady Macbeth, presenting an alternative portrait of the 11th-century Scottish queen. The play seeks to challenge centuries of depictions that characterized Lady Macbeth as power-hungry and villainous.

Set within a world shaped by warfare, vengeance, mysticism, and nature, the production combines historical themes with a contemporary “Burning Man” aesthetic to explore women’s voices throughout history and the ways unheard stories continue to emerge in the present day.

THE REAL LADY MACBETH - LIFTING THE CURSE features music by award-winning singer and composer Kristin Amarie, alongside co-composer and producer Alex Salzman.

Performances will take place at The Actors Company in Los Angeles on June 12, 14, 18, 21, 25, 26, and 28.

Tickets range from $13 to $23.
