"Shakespeare is basically just Game of Thrones without the gratuitous nudity or Ed Sheeran, and for some reason absolutely everybody feels it absolutely necessary to talk, at length, to nobody, about everything that they have ever thought, ever. It's infuriating and I hate it. I'd rather drink bleach than have to hear all that tripe about three homeless weirdos and a floating magic knife ever again."
William Tuggle is many things. He's a Shakespeare enthusiast. He's newspaper subscription holder. He's currently between jobs. He's a vampire, and he's also a convicted petty criminal with over 100 years worth of unpaid parking tickets. 

Given his history with ‘The Bard’ and his current financial situation, William Tuggle, a five hundred year old vampire, is forced to lead a troupe of reluctant undead as they complete their community service by performing the works of Shakespeare at secondary schools. The vampires endeavour to examine the best bits of Macbeth as they bungle through the text, in a vain attempt to educate audiences and pay off their debt to society. Spoiler, there will be blood.

With performances influenced by the methods of Augusto Boal's' Forum Theatre, this performance encourages audiences to get involved with the text both as spectators, and as active on stage participants.

​"If there is one thing we can all agree on, I think it's this; Macbeth is clearly an idiot and should not have been left alone to make any decisions by himself that didn't involve eviscerating the Norwegians.
Perhaps also that 'Young Siward' is about as relevant and useful to the story as a third nipple."
