WELCOME

Welcome to our final main stage production of Festival 2019, Shakespeare’s Macbeth.

The production marks Paul Miller’s directorial debut in his home-town of Chichester. Now Artistic Director of the Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond, he talks of the Festival Theatre as the location of his ‘theatrical upbringing’, seeing many productions here from an early age; so it’s an enormous pleasure to have him directing in the Festival Theatre for the first time.

Macbeth also marks the CFT debut of John Simm in the title role and reunites him with Dervla Kirwan, known to many in Chichester for her recent appearance in King Lear with Ian McKellen (2017) and her previous roles in Frankie and Johnny (2014) and Uncle Vanya (2012). She and John recently played husband and wife in Strangers on ITV; John’s many other credits include Hamlet (Sheffield Theatres), Pinter at the Pinter: Six (West End) and TV’s Collateral.

Whether this is your first time seeing Macbeth, or you are rediscovering this great play, we hope you enjoy this production. If you want to learn more about it, don’t miss Paul Miller in conversation with Kate Mosse on 25 September or join the post-show discussion with members of the company on 22 October. For children aged 10 and upwards, there’s a chance to get active in our unarmed stage combat workshop, When The Battle’s Lost and Won, on 26 October.

BRANCHING OUT Louise Rigglesford, Community Partnerships Manager, introduces CFT’s work with The Chichester Centre.

Almost four years ago, Chichester Festival Theatre’s Learning, Education and Participation (LEAP) team were invited to deliver a series of practical theatre workshops at The Chichester Centre, a low-secure hospital for adults who need rehabilitation and treatment for mental health difficulties. Initially intended to be a one-off series of sessions, these have developed into a core part of the sessions LEAP runs weekly for various groups of all ages and abilities.

Working alongside Occupational Therapists from the Centre, we were clear from the outset about the importance of facilitating activities that would enable a sense of belonging and coming together: something that at times can be hard to achieve in a hospital environment.

Sessions were offered as an open group with participants coming from a variety of different backgrounds, diagnosis and levels of participation. It was one of the first activities to be offered to clients from across the different wards within the Centre.

For the majority of the participants, these sessions were their first foray into the world of theatre. With this in mind, we began by delivering introductory theatre skills sessions and invited the group to a backstage tour of CFT. Due to the nature of the Centre, there was no obligation for participants to attend every session; however, the majority did take part every week. As such, a flexible working style developed, tailored to the needs of the individuals in the room, who commented: “I’ve never really had the chance to take part in something like that before.”

“It’s given me a way of expressing myself and a positive activity to focus on.”

“Exploring different aspects of what we can do in the group makes me feel bigger than life itself!”

The sessions have helped the participants develop a more positive sense of identity, to feel confident when initiating and sharing new ideas, and to be more comfortable when speaking to others. The skills they have developed are easily translated into a variety of social situations for when they leave hospital, whether at work, going into education or when building relationships with friends and other people in their life.

This summer the group performed an original piece called The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter to an audience of invited guests in the Minerva Theatre. The stimulus for the piece came from one member of the group who has a particular interest in Japanese culture and was inspired by the sessions to write a script in their own time and share it with the group.

Roma Carter, Senior Occupational Therapist at The Chichester Centre, has been involved in the project from the beginning: “For some individuals, the opportunity to engage in activity-based, creative groups has allowed them to develop and demonstrate a greater degree of concentration, social skills and processing skills that has not always been as evident in the general ward environment.

“The performance was a culmination of months of creativity, commitment and energy from a number of service users, and I was so proud to see them perform on the Minerva Theatre stage.”

The group have recently named themselves the Three Trees Theatre Company (after the three wards at the centre - Fir, Hazel and Pine), and have identified a shared passion for music. This Autumn we will start work on creating a new piece using this as our stimulus.

LEAP

MACBETH

By William Shakespeare

A CERTAIN KIND OF

MADNESS The 19th century English historian, politician and writer Lord Acton (1834-1902) issued a stark warning about the potentially corrupting effects of power in the hands of despots and tyrants: ‘power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely’.

Acton’s words were penned in 1887 in a letter to the historian Mandell Creighton, rebutting Creighton’s assertion that kings and popes should be given the benefit of the doubt and judged differently from other men. Acton, a man of high moral rectitude and with a strong sense of history, was a severe arbiter and for him it was a cardinal error not to expect exemplary standards of behaviour from those holding ultimate power and the highest offices of state. Far from tolerating and excusing derailed and delinquent leaders, Acton would prefer to ‘hang them higher [than common criminals]’. In his judgement, great men whom power has corrupted should pay a heavy price.

In A History of Western Philosophy (1946), Bertrand Russell alerted us to the corrupting and intoxicating effects that power can have on the human mind. For Russell, the intoxication of power is a ‘certain kind of madness’ that presents the ‘greatest danger of our time’ with the potential to contribute to ‘vast social disaster’.

It comes as no surprise that the Ancient Greeks were alert to the threats posed by leaders’ mental stability and the potentially disruptive effects on society and democracy of leaders’ intoxication with power, success and excess. They offered their own psychological explanation. The most perilous consequence of excess was hybris. Hybris, or as we now refer to it ‘hubris’, is a defect of moral character that

the Greeks dreaded absolutely. For them, the over-confidence, ambition, pride, contempt and arrogance that are the hallmarks of hubristic excess (koros) were followed by ate (a mental deception in the minds of those the Gods are leading to disaster) and the restorative justice served upon mortals who have the temerity to assume god-like powers (administered by the goddess of retribution Némesis). The rich (because they considered themselves above the law) and young men (fuelled by youthful exuberance and recklessness) were particularly at risk from hubris.

The problem of prime ministerial and presidential well-being is compounded by the tendency among heads of government to keep their physical and mental health out of the public gaze.

In ancient history, the Persian leader Xerxes was so intoxicated with power that he ordered the Hellespont (a narrow stretch of water that separates Europe and Asia) receive 300 strokes of a whip for defying him when a storm

Illustration (1909) depicting Xerxes' punishment of the Hellespont: the waters were whipped 300 times and shackles dropped into them as a mark of enslavement.

disrupted his attempt to invade Greece. Modern history is replete with examples of tyrannical leaders who showed clear signs of hubris, including Mao, Mussolini, Napoleon, Stalin and, perhaps most notably, Adolph Hitler whose two-volume biography by the noted English social historian, Ian Kershaw, are titled Hubris 1889-1936 and Nemesis 1936-1945.

Macbeth’s earthly aider and abettor is Lady Macbeth. When he vacillates she is firm, when he equivocates she goads him into action.

More recently, former Foreign Secretary and co-founder of the Social Democratic Party,

David Owen, in his study of the mental health of political leaders (In Sickness and in Power), has drawn our attention to the social, economic and geopolitical significance of mental health issues among heads of government. It is a grave error to overlook the health of politicians given that their decisions seriously affect the interests of citizens, nations and the world order. However, the problem of prime ministerial and presidential well-being is compounded by the tendency among heads of government to keep their physical and mental health out of the public gaze. In Lord Owen’s analysis, health issues adversely affected historic decisions taken by Anthony Eden in the Suez Crisis, and President John F. Kennedy in the failed invasion of Cuba at the Bay of Pigs.

In an attempt to establish a causal link between intoxication with power and ‘aberrant behaviour that has the whiff of mental instability about it’ Owen proposed an acquired personality disorder, ‘hubris syndrome’ which in its most extreme manifestation entails a progressive loss of touch with reality.

Macbeth’s intoxication with power and subsequent successes (from Glamis to Cawdor, from Cawdor to King), leads him inevitably to a mental self-deception (ate) that reveals itself fully in the calamitously hubristic events of the final act. By the end of the play Macbeth’s blindness is not only moral and emotional, but rational as well. With his increasing isolation and disintegration of his rationality, comes the definitive question, as in Hamlet, ‘who’s there?’

But, if Macbeth is about madness it is also a magical tale of the destructive power of clairvoyance. The play’s psychical foreseeing and supernatural design for Macbeth’s demise prefigure portentous patterns and providential designs, prompting questions of human agency and free will. Are the Three Witches (the Weird Sisters) by their nature unfailing and infallible; is their foreknowing unerring in its accuracy?

Even having inhaled the toxic fumes of the soothsayers’ promises of kingly power, Macbeth still has choices: he equivocates almost to the last between reason and passion, between morality and immorality, between

fair and foul. However, he doesn’t act alone.

His earthly aider and abettor is Lady Macbeth.

When Macbeth vacillates she is firm, when he equivocates she goads him into action. If the Three Witches are the catalysts that kindle Macbeth’s psychological and moral disintegration, Lady Macbeth – ‘from the crown to the toe top-full of direst cruelty’ – is the accelerant that fans the flames.

The play shows how hubristic excess and moral deterioration that are the consequences of an intoxication with power do not reside solely in the individual, they are a product of a two-way relationship between a moral protagonist and his colluders and acolytes. In modern times, would the indisputably hubristic President George W. Bush have undertaken the disastrous invasion of Iraq in 2003 without the intoxicant of power and the backing of active colluders – Cheney, Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz among others – and the consent of passive compliers? Bush’s crusade against the ‘axis of evil’ was compounded by the fact that having surrounded himself with an echo chamber

of his own making, and having no truck for countervailing opinions, he became increasingly isolated and detached from the reality of Middle Eastern geopolitics.

As history and Shakespeare show us repeatedly, ‘there is a tide in the affairs of men’ wherein hard-to-discern owned and unowned patterns and process are at work. The moral philosopher Mary Midgley reasoned that the hubris–nemesis pairing can be framed in terms of ‘getting what we asked for’ on the basis that bad consequences are not just a matter of chance. Acts that are morally wrong in themselves – such as the unethical pursuit of power, regicide or massacring of ‘firstlings’ – can reasonably be expected to have adverse effects. As such, their outcomes are a sign of what was wrong with the act in the first place. In Midgley’s words ‘hubris calls for nemesis, and in one form or another it’s going to get it, not as a punishment from outside but as the completion of a pattern already started’.

Power corrupts and the intoxication with power leads to hubris. Accordingly, Russell’s ‘certain kind of madness’ is an occupational hazard not only for fictional kings, but also for presidents, prime ministers and dictators.

Successful leaders intoxicated with power and success who are self-duped into the delusion that they, like Macbeth, ‘bear a charmèd life’ run the risk of their leadership running off the rails and turning dysfunctional and destructive.

Among UK political leaders Lord Owen singles out David Lloyd George, Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair as displaying hubris syndrome; while in the USA, he asserts that George W. Bush and the current incumbent of the White House are judged as having succumbed to the intoxication of power.

Interestingly though, because hubris syndrome is an acquired personality disorder or personality change brought on by intoxication with the power of high office, once power is lost the syndrome appears to abate. Hence, if hubris syndrome is to be thought of as an ‘illness’, then it is an illness of position rather than of the person. Macbeth’s psychological deterioration is initiated by his pursuit of power but exacerbated significantly when he achieves the high office of King of Scotland.

OPPOSITE: JOHN SIMM DERVLA KIRWAN

Power-intoxicated leaders strain resources and relationships, cultivate mutual feelings of high contempt and slight regard, undermine trust, and promote resentment, scorn and defiance.

In leadership, both in politics and business, the noxious blend of recklessness, pride, contempt and arrogance that follow the intoxication with power and success are the hallmarks of hubris.

Power-intoxicated leaders strain resources and relationships, cultivate mutual feelings of high contempt and slight regard, undermine trust, and promote resentment, scorn and defiance.

Destructive consequences follow, not because there is a direct, provable causal link between the intoxication of power and destructive outcomes, but because there are penalties and costs that someone who behaves hubristically invites and must therefore be committed to accepting.

History testifies to the fact that nasty surprises stem from the moral blindness that is the bedfellow of the unethical pursuit and misuse of power. As Macbeth finds out, succumbing to its intoxications comes at a very high price and the lessons, both in history and Shakespeare’s tragedy, are there for all to see.
