A story of a mother’s grief.
Without a child there seems little purpose. Resentment and anger build in an exploration of what happens when a heart is broken and the heartache never fades…the dull ache becomes resentment and then anger. This is what drives Lady M (Margaret). Searching for a purpose her hardened heart will lead her to do the unimaginable to get what she wants. Her desire for power to keep her family leads to haunting guilt and swelling paranoia.
Lady M (Margaret) is a new, Deaf-led adaptation of Macbeth that explores Shakespeare’s famous power couple with an intersectional experience for both Deaf and hearing audiences. Adapted, created and directed by internationally-renowned, Scotland-based theatre maker Ramesh Meyyappan, this world premiere performance work is the inaugural production by 1s1 Theatre featuring Dawn Jani Birley and Sturla Alvsvåg in the title roles.
