The Factory has always striven to make work that thrives on liveness, spontaneity, and risk. Its newest experiment is no exception.

 

We want you to play the Witches.

 

No acting experience required. The button below will take you to the script with some simple instructions. Just learn the lines and cues, follow the instructions and go for it. 

 

The red lines should be said by everyone collectively when the cue comes.

 

The blue lines are to be said by individual audience members. Email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and we will give you the numbers of the lines you need to learn. 

 

It is absolutely acceptable to buy a ticket and not say a word. However, we know from experience how liberating it can be to do something unplanned and unusual in front of a large group of people. What have you got to lose? Join us, and join in.

Directed by Artistic Director Alex Hassell, Macbeth is The Factory’s first major Shakespeare experiment since Hamlet and employs a shifting cast of players, all of whom have been cast with no regard for their gender, age, or physical type.
