Major Production 2006

Mon, 18 Sep, Wed, 20 Sep & Thu, 21 Sep 2006.

Uplands College presented Terry Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters, the play adapted for stage by Stephen Briggs.

Terry Pratchett takes Shakespeare's Macbeth and changes it completely. It's all there - the wicked duke and duchess, the ghost of the murdered king, dim soldiers strolling players, and a country in peril - yet Shakespeare would not recognise any of it!

Who stands between the Kingdom and destruction? Three witches. Granny Weatherwax (intolerant, self-opinionated, powerful), Nanny Ogg (down-to-earth, vulgar) and Magrat Garlick (naïve, fond of jewellery, bunnies and the Fool).
