Macbeth's Witches

Hong Kong Repertory Theatre Youth Troupe

This play reimagines Macbeth through the witches' perspective, using social media's vanity as a metaphor for their prophecy. It explores how young people can lose themselves in the digital world, blending Shakespeare's tragedy with modern issues.

Performed by Eastern actors, the piece brings together Eastern and Western cultures, offering a cross-cultural theatrical experience. Minimalist staging and non-verbal storytelling condense the play into 40 minutes, with young actors shaping innovative symbols like costumes and lighting. This adaptation inspires reflection on society, showcasing youth creativity and cultural exchange on the global stage.
