Macbett: Ionesco reinvents Shakespeare.<div> Ionesco challenges Shakespeare in this play within a play about myth. The faithful Macbett and Banco, who know neither fear nor ambition, encounter strange witches. Under their diabolical influence, they discover envy and jealousy, and gradually descend into madness.</div><div><br></div><div> In a "tragicomic" onslaught, Jérémie Le Louët and his team question our impulses, our vanities, and our free will. Entertainment for some, a nightmare for others; from tragedy to vaudeville to fairy tale; universal and iconoclastic; an opportunity for everyone to reflect on the mechanics of power.</div><div><br></div><div> With their legendary humor and fervor, Les Dramaticules sweep us away into the most Shakespearean of 20th-century plays. A production acclaimed by critics for its inventive staging and the quality of its performances.</div>
