Kiss Me Farewell

A play writ from boredom leads the three witches from Shakespeare’s Macbeth to conjure a spell to entertain themselves. A story they argue that will have terrible consequences and a fabled end. From the movement of their hands to the chanting of their voices, a story begins. Margarete, the princess of England, and Phillip, the prince of Spain, are two very different people. Margarete, a kind and intelligent young woman, searches for companionship and love. Phillip a foolhardy, disputable, and rule breaking young man, spies the princess. A testament of love and the winning of Margarete’s heart is not an easy thing to do especially when tensions arise between countries and tyrants rule blindly. Filled with witchcraft, wicked plots, poetic love, betrayal and magic mirrors, a different type of dark fairytale is told. Based on the historic story of Snow White and a combination of Shakespearean style verse, this play on words shows the true power of poetry and the beauty words can possess.
