| S4K's Macbeth - Radlett Preview |
Toil and trouble in Radlett10:45am Friday 16th October 2009 Gory murders, spooky hags, gruesome ghosts, bloody battles and even a forest that moves — that’s what you can expect when theatre group Shakespeare 4 Kidz’s thrilling musical version of Macbeth comes to The Radlett Centre next week. The whole of the original plot is retained and all the major characters are there too, to tell the blood-soaked story of the murderous Scottish warrior who, egged on by the prophecies of three weird witches and the ambitions of his evil wife, removes every obstacle in his path until he can seize the throne for himself. Shakespeare 4 Kidz uses the most famous lines from the original text, weaving them into modern language, adding some songs and dances into the mix, and the result is a two hour performance which everyone — even the youngest primary children — can understand. Macbeth is at The Radlett Centre, Aldenham Avenue, Radlett on Wednesday, October 21 at 1.30pm and 7.30pm and on Thursday, October 22 at 10am and 1.30pm. Tickets: 01923 859291 (£16, under-16s £9.50).
