I, Banquo is a solo show by award-winning international theatre-artist Tim Crouch that retells the story of Macbeth from the perspective of Banquo, Macbeth's best friend and fellow thane.

In the production, Banquo, who is murdered in the original play, speaks from beyond the grave to Macbeth, asking the audience to consider how they would have handled the prophecies made to Macbeth. Banquo explores what might have been if he had killed the traitorous MacDonwald instead of Macbeth. Crouch uses Shakespeare's language to have Banquo recount the events of the play. The show combines classic theater with modern storytelling.

“Just imagine,” the title character instructs near the top of Tim Crouch’s I, Banquo. "Imagine your best friend for life," he continues, "your brother-in-arms who has both saved your life and you his, imagine this closest of all friends is actually evil. And you’ve been utterly blind to it.” Those are the worst kind of betrayals, Banquo tells us; the ones that leave you unable to trust even yourself.

Run time is approximately 50 minutes. Appropriate for ages 12+ due to elevated language and description/depictions of violence.

I, Banquo will be performed in repertory with Nora: A Doll’s House from March to April.
