For those who know the tale, 'Radio Macbeth' a potent potion

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Hedy Weiss: "To be sure, the New York-based SITI Company production of 'Radio Macbeth' is not a starter kit for Shakespeare's tale about a bloody quest for power, the guilt and destruction that can result from unbridled ambition, and the poisonous dynamics of a marriage."

What a unique take on this classic Shakespeare play! I think that setting it in an ominous World War 2 setting is very topical. With the war going on right now, people tend to be very tense and reminiscing about past wars. I think that addressing that emotion is a smart move.
