Director Sato blends East and West in Kabuki Macbeth

Helen Gnaaima reviews Shozo Sato's Kabuki Macbeth staged by The Acting Company at Kennedy Center. The production fuses Shakespeare with Kabuki form in English dialogue, blending vocal, movement, and stagecraft. Performances by Irwin Appel and Spencer Beck (Lady Macbeth) are noted, with vivid witches and onstage violence mirroring Kabuki norms. The critic finds the experiment noble and moving, though movement language challenged American actors.
