Prepare to be thrust into a nightmarish world of passion, perversion, and dark romance in this immersive outdoor production of Shakespeare’s horror masterpiece MACBETH.

Presented in the natural amphitheater of The Irish Cottage’s historic Fairy Ring, we invite you into the mythic circle of stone and fire to experience a sadistic ritual from the ancient past, honoring the great legendary butcher king Macbeth and his savage, sensual sorceress queen.

No longer content to be the old king’s beast of the battlefield, Macbeth embarks on a murderous quest for greatness…spurred on by his animalistic love for his wife. Ritual sacrifice, black magic, and a battle to the death are only the beginning.

Be warned…this experience includes vivid depictions of violence, assault, and deeply morally ambiguous behavior.

MACBETH opens Friday 13th of October, with performances October 13th, 14th, 15th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, 27th, and 28th.

The ritual begins at 8PM and will run approximately 90 minutes. The outdoor cash bar will be open from 7:30 until 5 minutes before start time and again during intermission. Also, before or after the performance, we welcome you to enjoy drinks and dinner indoors at Frank O’ Dowd’s Irish Pub.

The Irish Cottage is located at 9853 U.S. 20, Galena, IL 61036.

Tickets are $25 and can be purchased here or in cash at the door.
