""Radiohead's music opens a door into Macbeth's internal world,""
""Its restless energy and atmospheric depth allow us to explore the supernatural, the political, and the personal in ways that feel urgently modern. Seeing the RSC's Hail to the Thief production demonstrated how music can reshape a classic; this Macbeth continues that exploration.""
""It was fun researching witchcraft a little bit, what it is these witches are doing and how they're calling in elements of nature in order to cast a spell,""
A wide array of Oregon theaters stage numerous productions in January, with many companies opening shows in the first weeks. Experience Theatre Project presents an immersive, movement-driven Macbeth adapted and directed by Alisa Stewart and set to Radiohead's music, creating an unsettling soundscape. Alisa Stewart performs live music with the band and drew inspiration from the Royal Shakespeare Company's Hamlet: Hail to the Thief. Andrea Parson choreographed movement for the production, researching witchcraft to shape the witches' scenes. Twilight Theater, led by artistic director Dorinda Toner, offers an edgy 13th season.
