Then and Now

Facing the end

Directed by Tom Gough & Liz Stimson

In 1590’s England, emerging young playwright William Shakespeare is drawn into one of his own plays where Macbeth and his Witches conjure a horde of Zombies to destroy Queen Elizabeth and a cast of the Bard’s most famous characters. This epic adventure follows a reluctant Shakespeare as he tries to find his voice as a writer and save the world from the undead in a rock and roll horror comedy mash up.
