Set loosely during World War I, this Macbeth utitlized the dark and gritty nature of the original text and played off of it. It was set minimalistically with the only real scenic piece being a circular wooden slab that could be transformed into a table, a playing space or even a cauldron. The costumes were pushed to be more mordern in comparison, but still kept touches of the period, including the silhouette of men's WWI uniforms. The color palette for the Macbeths' and other royals was kept in dark, grey tones and deep indigos, while the infamous witches sauntered around in detroyed uniform pieces and clothes dragged off of the battlefield - primarily earthy and sometimes covered in dried blood.
