Never before has Shakespeare's 'Scottish play' been performed quite like this. Trevor Kervis, director un-extraordinaire, strikes again in this farcical look at the dramatic techniques in Macbeth that have made it a favorite among thespians since Elizabethan times. Students will enjoy the quirky characters and upbeat analysis that feature in the program. If 'all the world's a stage' then Trevor Kervis must be the clown.
