Shake on the Lake (SOTL) has produced live, outdoor, professional performances of William Shakespeare’s plays since 2012. This summer SOTL returns to live touring for the first time since 2019, with their own unique outdoor staging of the tragic Scottish play, MXBETH.
Shake on the Lake’s professional actors bring the audience along through intimate shows performed in daylight inspired by Elizabethan staging practices.
“By the pricking of the thumbs, something wicked this way comes.” Once upon a dreary heath in Scotland, three “weird sisters” conjure a prophecy that predicts Macbeth will ascend to the throne of Scotland. How far will the war-torn general go to see the prophecy come true? A bloodbath and consequent civil war swiftly take Macbeth and Lady Macbeth into the realms of paranoia, madness, and to the mouth of death.
Shake on the Lake’s Brockport performance is Saturday, July 23, at 6:30 p.m. on the lawn of the Morgan Manning House, 151 Main Street. The company requests that attendees register for the show on Eventbrite so they know the audience size (https://www.eventbrite.com/e/mxbeth-by-william-shakespearethe-morgan-manning-house-tickets-349686380377?aff=
