Macbeth
1363 Old Globe Way, San Diego, 92101
Cost: $29 - $92
Brian Kulik's direction of the "Scottish play" for the Old Globe is more concerned with doing something different than serving the play. So Jonathan Cake's Macbeth speaks like a sportscaster, pausing at odd spots, and Marsha Stephanie Blake's Lady Macbeth's so reigned in she's almost placid. Some scenes have invention (the Porter has a female companion, and just as snockered), but the production in no way offers tragic stature for the "dead butcher" and his "fiend-like queen."
