Messing with Mackers: MacDeath! At TheatreCrude

Two husband and wife duos in a row! This episode we talk to actor Tiffany Tuggle and Wil Rogers, actor and writer of MacDeath. (Yes, those are their real names - I asked.) We talk about balancing family and acting, relationships on and off the stage, superstition on the stage. Warning: Do not say Macbeth in front of Wil in the theatre or you’ll be spinning outside the theatre, spitting, cursing, and begging for reenterance. So, let’s see what it looks like when you “screw your courage to the sticking place” and mess with Mackers. The arts are under attack, and buying tickets is a great way to show your support and fight back. See the links below for tickets to MacDeath’s performances in coordination with Theatre Crude. Thursday, October 2 at 7:00pWednesday, October 8 at 10:00pFriday, October 10 at 8:30pSaturday, October 11 at 4:00pAt 3rd Act Theatre CompanyThe Shoppes at Northpark12000 N.
