Lake Orion High School thespians Elijah Vernagus and Maggie Bayley are directing the play

Tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for students and will be sold at the door.

In the play, everything goes wrong. The witches take over the storytelling, Queen Duncan would rather open a donut franchise than die, Lady M’s a bloodthirsty housewife and the murderers are preoccupied with creating a commercial for their services, according to a description of the play from Theatrefolk.com, a drama teaching resource company.

The play features 10 characters and has a runtime of about 45 minutes. – J.N.
