A troupe of players have set stage and gathered a crowd to present their unique look at Shakespeare’s ‘Scottish play’, told this time from the viewpoint of the witches, yet without the use of supernatural forces. Revealing new twists and turns, and using a contemporary storytelling style, Three Witches explores the eternal questions, “How far will we go for love? How do we define it, seek it out, secure it and protect it; and finally, what we will sacrifice for it?” told from the vantage of those who fate never smiled upon.

CRIMSON
running time 100 minutes (1f, 2m)drama
Kim is an emotional runaway who can only find security in a re-creation of her earliest remembered pain. Steven is her safety net and Jeff her forbidden fruit. Variety writes “Crimson has been referred to as a step beyond ‘Looking For Mr. Goodbar’. Sadomasochism has formed an intricate lacework trim on the edges of the cloth of human sexuality since the beginning of time and Crimson digs deeper into the existence of the aberration in our daily lives without the use of graphic or lurid scenes but the relying on the tension that drives us to our extremes in this way the play stays uniquely innovative in its approach to the themes of control, violence sex, striving for more and settling for less--pushing the boundaries by denying them.”
