2700 S. Lang Street,
Arlington, VA, Virginia 22206

A rare revival of Barbara Garson's legendary Viet Nam Era satire, "MacBird!" A troubled and profane Lyndon Baines Johnson is cast as MacBeth. What began as a counter-culture event, retains its humor while allowing some clearly disturbing perspective on repeating patterns in American politics. An historical treasure and a piece of bold, in-your-face satire.

Directed by Ellen Dempsey with a cast of DC area favorites. Wednesday-Saturday evenings at 8 PM and selected Saturday-Sunday matinees at 2:30 PM
