How can we, in our contemporary rationalistic world, question and reinvent the terrifying and supernatural story of Macbeth, without scaring everyone ?
Using irony perhaps…

How does that character of the past still haunt our modern theatres and opera houses ? And what is this superstition which forbids us to speak his name for fear of the worst disasters happening on show nights ?

Will the Maîtrise Populaire be able to play, sing and dance this piece without incurring the wrath of the past on our innocent audiences ? Nothing could be less certain…
