What happens when renowned American theatre makers Jennifer King, Tanya Marie, Jeff Mills, and James Donlon join forces with Italy's Teatro Patalò to work on Macbeth?

We get MACBETH:REVOLT!
A revolution in Shakespearean performance
Breathtaking physical imagery, masterful use of language (English AND Italian) and a vital relationship with the audience.
Decades of collective artistic experience
A radical mix of theatrical methods, creative processes, madness, and MAGIC!
Work that speaks directly to our current moment and centers relevance over tired Shakespearean dogma

In August 2025 we are gathering in northern California for a summit meeting of extraordinary theatre artists. Our goal is to ignite our collective passion for Shakespeare and tackle one of his most challenging and exciting plays- Macbeth. Celebrated Italian theatre artists Isadora Angelini and Luca Serrani from Teatro Patalò will join us in our exploration of a tragedy with obvious contemporary resonance. We'll explore the human lust for power, the impulse toward totalitarianism, and the inevitable gravity that pulls decent people toward acts of evil. Ultimately, we will offer our audiences a riveting and entertaining context to collectively grapple with these important themes. This is the creation phase of MACBETH:REVOLT, and in December we will have our World Premiere at the Teatro Sociale in Novafeltria, Italy. In 2026 we plan to play in Chicago, San Francisco, and in festivals throughout the European Shakespeare circuit.

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT! We have secured grants to bring our Italian collaborators to California, and now we need supplemental funds to cover rehearsal and production expenses the Bay Area. We are working to raise $2700 to cover company accommodations for a month! Your contribution of $25, $50, $75, or $100 can make the dream of international collaboration a reality!
