I'll be honest--I came to this show just because I couldn't believe it was possible, and had to see how it was pulled off. It turned out to be so fun! A few *tiny* liberties were taken with the original story (though I've seen some versions of Macbeth that would have been a lot better with a bubble gun)...more importantly, any comedian who thinks they've had challenging experiences with audiences needs to come observe this like they're watching a master class in crowd work.
