Jimmy DeVita’s reimagining of Macbeth devised an ancient world where loyalty to your nomadic tribe is life or death, and a warrior’s worth is in their merits as a fighter and tribe member. Resetting the play’s circumstances to the most necessary elements of society - loyalty, merit, honor, trust - gave this production a uniquely raw and relevant approach.
