An amateur theater company's whodunit hurtles towards opening night -- but the real mystery is whether the cast and crew can get this disaster to curtain call. The best seat in the house is backstage on opening night in this full-throttled homage to Michael Frayn's classic comedy, Noises Off.
 
Noses Off is our New Faces production, which will feature our youngest MHS theatre artists.

Macbeth
 
by William Shakespeare
Directed by Jonathan Meier
 
January 30, 31, February 1 at 7:30 p.m.
January 31 at 3:45 p.m.

When Macbeth meets three witches who predict he will become Thane of Cawdor and then King of Scotland, madness born of ambition sets in, and he and his wife seize power by all possible means, leading to murderous consequences. With startlingly beautiful language, Shakespeare’s revered tragedy reveals the underbelly of ambition in a world steeped in power mongering, war, and magic.

 

Performed with the audience sitting onstage in a thrust configuration, this production will feature original music composed and played live at each performance by Holden Meier, as well as fight choreography by Dan Haller (MHS ’18).

 

Tickets go on sale January 13, 2025.
