Synopsis

The performance is a psychological drama inspired by William Shakespeare's Macbeth. It explores the inner turmoil of Lady Macbeth in the aftermath of the murder, when the crushing weight of guilt becomes unbearable and she gradually descends into madness. Her mind is relentlessly haunted by distorted thoughts, while ghosts and the specter of death emerge from the depths of her conscience. Unable to silence the voices that torment her, she spirals into insanity, confronting the judgment of her own soul before ultimately finding peace in the embrace of death.
