About the Show

“A tour de force performance from Mary Chieffo!”
“An extremely complex and layered piece of writing by Ellie Pyle full of big, ambitious swings.”
“Deliciously dark & ovaries to the wall performance and script and staging. ”
“One of the best things I’ve seen at Fringe!”

 

Have you ever wondered what happens between Lady Macbeth’s final exit and her off-stage death? In this provocative one-woman show, she summons the spirits of Clytemnestra, Bathsheba, and Igraine–all of whom married their husband’s murderer (like Lady Macbeth’s historical counterpart, Gruoch). Blood Brides weaves history and mythology into a searing meditation on marriage and murder, magic and fate, legacy and survival.
