Mental (Un)Health & Toxicity in Macbeth by Shuktara Lal
Theatre Workshop
Age Group: 15-21 years
An exploration of how Macbeth can be a study of neglected mental health care and the burden of that on intimate relationships. What might have preceded the toxic elements of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth's relationship that we see in the play? How can we direct the play to highlight red flags in relationships?
