At the Comédie-Française, a Macbeth under Lexomil. Silvia Costa's overly abstract staging unfortunately does not live up to Shakespeare's masterpiece.
Noam Morgensztern – who, at the beginning, wears the cassock! – embodies a MacBeth full of sexual anxieties, sometimes reduced to an infant who demands his pacifier. The Witches arrive from the right pushing a wheel reminiscent of the one used for torture. The wheel is one of the best scenographic ideas of this show with the majestic and cold facade of a Gothic cathedral.
