About the full play:
Infamously known as the cursed Scottish play, Macbeth is perhaps Shakespeare's darkest tragedy. When General Macbeth is foretold by three witches that he will one day be King of Scotland, Lady Macbeth convinces him to get rid of anyone who could stand in his way -- including committing regicide. As Macbeth ascends to the throne through bloody murder, he becomes a tyrant consumed by fear and paranoia.

@Sei1863 this was indeed a live performance, and Marsters is scheduled for L.A. Theatre Works' six performances (and recording) of "Frost/Nixon" April 19-22, 2012. On the website for purchasing tickets, it says: "You are purchasing tickets to a play performed without sets or costumes for later broadcast on public radio stations nationwide. All Sales Final." This was true of "Macbeth" also.

@AuntieK53 Hi guys, thanks for your interest in this recording. Macbeth was actually one of the few recordings we've don in-studio rather as a live performance (primarily because of the complexities of Shakespeare's plays). But Mr Marsters is indeed scheduled to perform live with us for Frost/Nixon, and he also did live performances of The Importance of being Earnest and She Stoops to Conquer (which were both recorded live).

@latheatreworks1 -- Thanks for the correction. You would know, if anyone would!

@Sei1863 & how does that in any way invalidate my remarks..? The man & his considerable talent has been SQUANDERED for far too long! Not an uncommon thing, sadly in Hollywood...
