Newell Drama Club presents Macbeth:Off-Kilter on Thursday November, 14th and Friday November 15th at 7:00 pm in Austin Auditorium. Who says Shakespeare's darkest tragedy can't give you belly laughs? Scotty Macbeth, is a high school senior with everything going for him, including a giant ego and a penchant for plaid. When some goth classmates-the weird sisters-convince him that he, not his friend Duncan Morto, should be the class president, his ambition leads him down a dark and absurd path of deception and expulsion.(No murder, of course. It's a comedy, after all!) Macbeth's plan is foiled when a hilarious cast of school faculty(including the goofy custodian Willie, his love interest Nurse Doris and Oprah, the unstable psychologist) team up with a couple of angry expelled "ghosts" and start investigating the troublesome events at Highland High. Macbeth's cheerleader girlfriend and co-conspirator, Sadie MacNutt, cleans her way to total madness as her own guilt finally exposes their evil plot. Complete with witty word play, slapstick action and a shocking twist ending, Macbeth: Off-Kilter spins the frown of tragedy upside down! Produced by special arrangement with Pioneer Drama Service, Inc., Englewood, Colorado. Admission is a free-will donation.
