Scaffolding crashes on clown! Raspberry jello splatters! Kilts inflate! Chicago's premiere physical theater company 500 Clown explodes Shakespeare' s classic. With grunts, groans, bruising battles and nary a word, three clowns try to mount the cursed Scottish play but implode in a back-stabbing massacre of physical risk and profoundly hilarious comedy. It was 2002 when we presented the sold-out Baltimore premiere of 500 Clown Macbeth, and for eight years our audiences have bugged us to bring the show back—so we did! Q&A follows.
"And with little more than a few choice lines from the original, some brazenly deconstructed ad-libs, a hospital emergency room's worth of death-defying gymnastics and off-the-wall stunts, plus a ferociously twisted sense of anarchy, they have turned `the Scottish play' into something fast, furious and insanely true to its core."
Chicago Sun-Times
"Entirely scattershot, ribald and exhilarating" New York Times
" Jaw dropping! Hilarious!" Chicago Tribune
" Comic intellectualism. ..with out being pretentious. " Variety
