The Company Theatre is one of Rochester's newest theater collectives and is currently staging a production of "Macbeth" at The Temple Theatre.
The Little Theatre is also screening a stage production of "Macbeth" this month, featuring David Tennant and Cush Jumbo.
The Shakespearean tragedy about power and corruption has made "The Scottish Play" as relevant as ever.
Guest host Matt DeTurck and the artistic team from the Company Theatre explore the political themes of "Macbeth" and how they relate to today, plus the team's decision to open a new theater in a post-pandemic world.
In studio:
- Carl Del Buono, actor playing "Macbeth,” and founding artistic director of The Company Theatre
- Philip Detrick, director of "Macbeth," and board vice president for The Company Theatre
- Jill Rittinger, actor playing "Lady Macbeth," and board member for The Company Theatre
