CANCELLED: Something wicked good this way comes: MacBeth at Sunnyside Conservatory

[Update Mar 7: This performance is cancelled and will be rescheduled later.]

All are invited to attend William Shakespeare’s MACBETH, performed by San Francisco Shakespeare Festival’s touring troupe, Shakespeare On Tour. Sunday March 8th, 2020 at 2 PM. Admission free. This is the fifth year of Shakespeare at the Sunnyside Conservatory. Sponsored by Sunnyside Neighborhood Association.

You won’t want to miss this thrilling tale of misguided ambition and its consequences! A trio of mysterious witches predicts that Macbeth will become King… but at what cost?

His irrational desire to become ruler through any means possible results in his inevitable downfall as he begins a journey of betrayal and deceit that ends tragically for himself and Scotland.

At the end of this hour-long production the cast will take questions from the audience.
