Photo Flash: First Look at The Players Theatre's MACBETH

The new musical, MACBETH, opened for previews at The Players Theatre this past weekend on September 5, 2014. Below, check out a first look at the production's cast, in just-released publicity images!

Macbeth is directed by Christian Amato (Barbicide, Bitch) and choreographed by Emily Maddan, with original music by Eric Fletcher. Inspired by William Shakespeare''s play, MACBETH brings this classic tale Off-Broadway full of the frenetic energy and fatalistic attitude of the prohibition era.

MACBETH transforms the timeless story ambition, conspiracy and betrayal into a new musical of romance, eroticism and decadence that amplifies a bloodthirsty cycle of corruption.

This powerful tragedy is full of the frenetic energy and fatalistic attitude of the prohibition era.
