A Final "Macbeth" Interview



   Time is running out on your last chance to catch this performance of a true theatre classic, as told with a modern twist. 

   For our final interview with the stars of Macbeth, let's hear from actor Len Trent, who has some comments to lay on us (that terrible joke will have Shakespeare fans laughing in a moment):

Q: You're part of a classic Shakespeare play, but in case our reader isn't familiar with it, tell us the basic story.

Len: This is the story of a man and his choices. Fate shows him what life can be and he chooses to achieve it by any means necessary. 

Q: Tell us about the character you play.

Len: Macduff.  The Thane of Fife. A nobleman with a deep love for country and family.  Since they both have been taken away, he will not stop until he has ended this tyrannical reign. 

Q: What's the most challenging thing about this show? 

Len: Finding the balance between the language and the acting.  We have tried to let the language shine while keeping it natural. 

Q: Will the audience be scared or shocked by this production?

Len: Hopefully a little of both.  Scared to miss anything else at ARTS and shocked at how much they love theater. 

Q: Why did you want to be part of this show?

Len: I love Shakespeare and have not done it in a long time.  It was also a chance to find a theatrical home. 

Q: Why would you recommend this show to our readers?  

Len:  I believe this is a story anyone will enjoy. It also fits this spooky time of year. 

Q: Tell us the dates, times and place for the show.

Len:   Oct. 20 at 8 p.m. and Oct. 21 at 2 p.m. at the Renaissance Theater at 900 8th Street in Huntington.
