Macbeth is a drug baron and pimp, Lady Macbeth a Valium-addicted, narcoleptic burnout and manipulator. Macbeth and Lady Macbeth murder Duncan, the head of Melbourne's criminal underground, in cold blood, but soon after Macbeth takes the throne, he is undone, and beheaded, by usurper Macduff.
This Macbeth is true to the ugly-hearted original. No one is redeemed by gore, or absolved of madness. Nor do lines sound any less sublime when channeled through underlings and overlords.
The play's power has been diluted by questionable editing, an overload of blandly stylized violence and the conspicuous suspicion that this whole thing is the predictable result of catering to base commercial instincts.
