Free tickets are available, while they last, for the Levels spring production of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth. Performances will be held on Thursday, Feb. 2; Friday, Feb. 3; and Saturday, Feb. 4, at 8 p.m. in the Levels Teen Center on the lower level of the Great Neck Library’s Main Building, 159 Bayview Ave.
Levels, the Great Neck Library’s cultural center for teens which was established in 1974, presents several fully staged theatrical productions each year. Macbeth will be the first performance in the newly renovated Levels space, which features a state-of-the-art LED lighting system. Like all Levels productions, Macbeth is entirely directed, produced and performed by students in seventh grade through college.
Macbeth tells the tale of a beloved Scottish general who led his country to victory in war. But a prophecy from a trio of witches, combined with the manipulative words of his wife and his own self-doubt, transform Macbeth from an even-tempered man into a tyrannical monster who craves power for its own sake.
Tickets are intended to guarantee seating, as space is limited, and are available at the circulation desk of all Great Neck Library branches. For more information, contact Levels at 516-466-8055, ext. 216, or email levels@greatnecklibrary.org.
