Directed by Justin Tharpe, this rendition of Macbeth explores the gray area between perception and reality. Chris Canfield, artistic director of BBP and actor portraying Macbeth, says, “Our version of Macbeth asks the questions, ‘Are hallucinations really hallucinations? Are our choices really our choices? Or are we puppets in a bigger game?’ Because no matter what Macbeth does, he’s playing into someone’s hands.”
