Portia, Lady Macbeth, and the Not Quite Dead
Video premiere and digital music release on World Theatre Day: March 27th.
Portia premieres as part of
Lady Macbeth and the Not Quite Dead
Lady Macbeth and the Not Quite Dead, finds us all in the middle of Lady M’s infamous sleepwalking scene, except this time… she doesn’t spend her final night alone. She calls on the spirits of all those Shakespearian women who have "not quite" died before her. A party ensues and we become witness to the words, the wisdom and the wise cracks of those who were written off.
‘Lady Macbeth and the Not Quite Dead’ is a unique collaboration featuring 17 songs (and videos) from artists from across Canada, presented by Musical TheatreWorks:
A unique digital cabaret, premiering online for a very limited time only:
March 27th - April 3rd
Portia, however, is immortal: find the song wherever you stream music.
Let’s hope one day soon, all the artists involved can perform this live, in-person!
