Macbeth: A post-apocalyptic version of the classic Shakespearean drama.

Firstly, that it was a comedy. And thirdly, it involved a lot of trees. In this tale, we have all the usual tropes of a Shakespeare comedy — boys dressed as girls, love at first sight, sibling rivalry, a happy wedding-centric ending, and so on.

Orlando and Rosalind fall in love and, while both of aristocratic circles, they meet once and then are split. Rosalind disguises herself as a man, Ganymede, and Celia becomes her sister. They also take with them the court fool, Touchstone, and head off into the Forest of Ar-Den.

Though I actually sort of hate being the person who says this about Shakespeare, but it did genuinely make me laugh on a few occasions. The biggest laughs come from Touchstone, the fool, and Jaques who was emo long before that was even a thing. It comes to it that this might have just become a Shakespeare play that I really like, and the manga styling works really well for it.

Well done, William, another cracking performance. You are commenting using your WordPress.

Some of our weapons are just modern materials that have been fused together to make a weapon, so it makes sense from a budgetary standpoint, but I was also really interested in casting the show gender blind and seeing how the story would work out with a female Macbeth.

These are women in traditionally male roles, but we just went for the best actor who walked into the room for every role and then we worked around that. Are there any considerations for a female Macbeth?

In our world, gender pronouns are derived from what you do in society rather than what your reproductive systems says gender is. Once we made that choice, it made for some really interesting twists to the storytelling. For example, it gives a whole new story behind the childlessness of the Macbeths.

These people want power, but they have no path to power in a society where power is derived only from the bloodline. So basically, it sounds like you went in with a loose concept of it and it developed as you went along. Sean — It strengthened as it went. Martin — Yeah we had the visual sense of the show very early. We went from talking about the show to casting it in a couple of weeks.

Did you guys know about the post-apocalyptic vision when you auditioned? I wanted to be in this show at any capacity since I read it in high school. I considered directing it years ago with the same kind of twists, the same kind of take on it, except the vision was taken much further by Sean and Martin, so it actually worked out better. When I saw that they were going to be casting it as gender-blind, I thought it was amazing. I was just super excited about that.
