A journey through the war-torn Scotland of Macbeth, where years of perpetual violence have left scars both physical and psychological. A "chance" encounter with three witches brings about a prophecy, setting off a devastating chain of events that plunges Macbeth into madness—and brings the audience along for the ride. a fiercely talented all-female cast offers a unique perspective on the violence and power struggle of this archetypically masculine story.
