The Devil Speaks True

A visceral performance and an intimate insight into the psychological impact of war, The Devil Speaks True recounts the story of Shakespeare’s Macbeth as told by Banquo. As you sit in complete darkness wearing wireless headphones, an immersive world of sound, video and live performance places you at the centre of Banquo's rapidly unraveling existence, transporting you from bloody battlefield to spectral banquet. Shakespeare’s text is interspersed with accounts from ex-servicemen to root this auditory adventure in the chilling realities of the camaraderie and after-effects of war.
