Nacogdoches High School to Stage 'The Scottish Tragedy', a Macbeth Adaptation, this April

Nacogdoches High School (NHS) is preparing to stage 'The Scottish Tragedy,' an adaptation of Shakespeare's 'Macbeth' by Gloria and Azure McLuckie. The NHS Theatre Department, under the leadership of Victoria Perry and Amanda Abbott, has already presented the play in the One-Act Play competition last month, earning a place in the bi-district competition. The next performances are on April 4, 5, and 6 at 7 p.m. in the NHS auditorium.

The cast includes Brianna Hightower as Lady Macbeth, Mars McIntosh as Macbeth, Isabelle Clay as Lady Macduff and Messenger, and Ian Lawrence as the Porter. Kylar Bowden, Peyton Lewis, and Jamie Gibson play the Witches, while Grady Hart, Lourdes Leon, Rees Runnels, Grayson Rhoden, Riley Hall, and Jacob Norman fill various other roles.

Samantha McQuade is the Senior Lead Tech & Lights, assisted by William Vermeulen, the Assistant Lead Tech & Sound. Ian Lawrence is in charge of the LED lighting backstage. The backstage crew, Maite Cano, Melanie Garcia, and Bryan Martinez, work hard to ensure every detail is in place. The NHS auditorium will open at 6:30 p.m., and tickets are $5.

The upcoming performance of 'The Scottish Tragedy' at NHS is a showcase of the students' talents, both on stage and behind the scenes.
