Macbeth Muet – A Bloody and Burlesque Shakespeare

Performance dates in Madrid:
📍 Madrid, Spain
November 15 – 6:00 PM
November 16 – 1:00 PM & 6:30 PM

In this wordless adaptation of Shakespeare’s tragedy, Macbeth Muet immerses the audience in a world at the crossroads of silent film, grand guignol, and object theatre. The famous tale of Macbeth, a loyal soldier who spirals into murderous madness after the prophecy of three witches, is reimagined in a highly visual and physical form of great intensity.

Driven by an immersive soundtrack and meticulously choreographed movement, this wild and visceral version portrays the cursed couple in a frenzied race for power. Bodies, everyday objects, and geysers of fake blood intertwine in an aesthetic both comic and macabre.

Macbeth Muet deconstructs a classical work with finesse and humor to create a sensory theatrical experience, where the thirst for power proves as absurd as it is relentless.
