Baked Shakespeare - The Tragedy of Macbeth
Baked Shakespeare
21st & 22nd February 2025
South Africa's hit production company, Baked Shakespeare, is approaching its 5th season! Join us for this special rendition of our first Tragedy: Macbeth.
Macbeth is the original tragicomedy - sexy, dark, brimming with witchcraft, feminism, and bloody ambition. This Shakespearean classic tells the story of a Scottish general, who is spurred by a prophecy from three witches to murder the king and seize the throne, coupled with Baked Shakespeare's cannabis-infused chaos.
“The perfect way to reintroduce Shakespeare’s work as fun and light-hearted to the youth.” - The Stellenbosch
Directed by Juliette Rose-Innes, this raunchy adaptation has something for everyone from spooky magic, audience interaction, hilarious musical numbers, and of course ... raucous fight scenes and MURDER!
Join our award-winning cast at The Masque for a psychedelic evening of classical performance with a twist, and some of the grooviest 420 vibrations imaginable. See why we were one of the "best/funniest shows in years" at the Edinburgh Fringe!
Book now ... while you still can.
Please note - members of the cast will be smoking cannabis on stage during the performance.
