Macbeth

Something wicked this way comes! The Rustic Mechanicals are proud to present Shakespeare’s classic tragedy, Macbeth to Oakland, Maryland as part of their 2025 Vaulting Ambition Tour! The Mechanicals will play at Our Town Theatre. Admission fees will go to the Rustic Mechanicals; proceeds from refreshments will go to Our Town Theatre.

Founded by Celi Oliveto in the summer of 2014, The Rustic Mechanicals is the only troupe of actors in the state dedicated to touring the works of William Shakespeare and other classical playwrights. 

Murder! Prophecy! Witches! …and, surprisingly, Love! The power of a prophecy tempts the ambitious General Macbeth and his passionately persuasive wife to accelerate their road to royalty. Something wicked this way comes when the real-life husband and wife founders of the Rustic Mechanicals play the original power couple whose vaulting ambition unravels their love and their lives.

Join us on August 9 as Our Town Theatre welcomes the Rustic Mechanicals back to Maryland!
