Dzieci Theater Company’s “Makbet” at Opus 40 You’ve never seen Shakespeare like this before. “Makbet” is an exciting, experimental take on a storied classic. In Dzieci Theater Company’s haunting interpretation of “Macbeth,” barely anything is prepared but the bones. No set. No lights. No music or sound effects. Just performers transcending a small space. All members have the entire play memorized and spontaneously switch roles in every sequence. The transformed, single-act production incorporates folk songs and chants from Scandinavia and Eastern Europe. Huffington Post drama critic David Finkle calls it an “eye-popping, ear-poking confirmation that Shakespeare once again constructed something not easily degraded.” Dzieci Theater is dedicated to healing and forming community through theater. Their intimate performance of “Makbet” comes to Opus 40 in Saugerties on July 7 at 6pm. (845) 246-3400; Opus40.org —Briana Bonfiglio
