Bruce Horak (Hemmer) is a long-standing theatre performer. He and some longtime colleagues have come up with an innovative and eccentric Goblin: MacBeth.

Beyond its initial run in Bruce’s hometown of Calgary, the production is scheduled for a two week run at the Stratford Festival in October and is just starting a run at Vancouver’s Bard on the Beach festival.

From the Stratford Festival listing…

"Goblin:Macbeth is a blast of pure creative genius. Unpredictable, unrestrained and uninhibited, it is the stage equivalent of a theme park funhouse ride." Calgary Herald

Enjoy the Scottish play like never before with Goblin:Macbeth, coming to the Meighen Forum!

In a tale of three goblins stumbling upon the complete works of William Shakespeare, Rebecca Northan, Bruce Horak and Ellis Lalonde blend improvisation, fantasy and tragedy in an electrifying and fresh interpretation of the classic play. When goblins come to the Stratford Festival, anything can happen!

I hate it when they kill a character just to develop another, it's so lazy and cliché. Definitely one of my pet peeves in media, along with 'the plot only works because characters refuse to communicate'.
