The title of a new parody thriller playing under the stars at Art Farm at Serenbe in Chattahoochee Hills is “M.A.C.B.E.T.H.” The show is exactly what it looks like: Shakespeare’s “Macbeth,” staged as if it were a ’90s network sitcom, with all six of your favorite Manhattan friends slowly unraveling into a story of ambition, betrayal and psychological horror. Written and directed by Erin Stegeman, the world premiere opened May 8 and runs through May 17.

What audiences will find  

For this production of “M.A.C.B.E.T.H.”, the stage is set in Serenbe’s Wildflower Meadow, open to whatever the Georgia sky decides to do on any given night.

“It’s literally just a stage in a field, and the stage is not flat,” deLoache said. “Previous productions have had to use generators. So we are getting the luxury of being able to turn some lights on and off at will.”
