“A tale of sound and fury, signifying first class theatre for everyone over eight.’’ The Herald
Is This a Dagger? The Story of Macbeth explores the paths between fact and fiction, myths and truths. A perfect introduction for newcomers to this wicked tale, and a fresh take on it for Shakespeare aficionados. Is this a Dagger? was first created by Andy Cannon in 2007 and has continued to play to Scottish audiences in schools and theatres since then. 2017 was its 10th year anniversary and to celebrate the production was selected as part of the Made in Scotland showcase and performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Andy Cannon, formerly of Wee Stories Theatre, is one of Scotland’s best-loved storytellers. His work sits between storytelling and theatre and is loved by audiences young and old. With a compact set and original music, Andy communicates directly with the audience, drawing them into the story. Cleverly weaving Shakespeare’s original language with his own storytelling style, Andy creates a performance where parents and grandparents are as captivated, challenged and intrigued as much as the children sitting next to them.
