The Farndale Avenue Housing Estate
Townswomen's Guild Dramatic Society's
Production of Macbeth
by DAVID
McGILLIVRAY and WALTER ZERLIN Jnr
Produced
by KEEFE BROWNING
Performed in January 2009
Yes, it's
Shakespeare—but not as
we know it!
THRILL
as the ladies from Farndale Avenue take a steamroller to the tragedy
that is 'the Scottish play' and turn it into a tragedy of a different
kind.
GASP as they put the set
up back to front, and don't realise until midway in the first act.
GAPE as one of the ladies
misses her bus
and Henry the stage manager is forced to step into the
breach...as Lady Macbeth. Complete with beard and Viking
helmet.
All
in all, an evening's entertainment that no one will ever forget,
whether watching it or being in it. CAST
