Description
Description
As a dramatic sequel to William Shakespeare’s “Macbeth”, “Dunsinane” is a vision of one man’s attempt to restore peace in a country ravaged by war.
Under the cover of night an English army has swept through the Scottish landscape, killed a tyrant and taken the seat of power.
Attempting to restore peace and put in place a new ruler, the commanding officer Siward is beset by a brutal guerrilla uprising and simmering discontent amongst his inexperienced troops. Struggling to grasp the alien customs and politics of this harsh country, he finds himself drawn towards Macbeth’s powerful widow in search of someone to share his burden of responsibility. Increasingly isolated from his own men and Scottish allies alike, he sees his efforts to restore order appear futile as the situation spins out of control.
