William's carefully chosen and meticulously directed choices bring the play up to date in a generally tasteful and effective manner. Macbeth delivers his "dagger soliloquy" under the influence of alcohol, and Shakespear's Porter becomes his soused bartender. Moreover, Birnam wood does not come to Dunsinane as camouflage of war, but rather through its use in the manufacture of the enemy's weapon...

...disinter dear Uncle Sam.

Stern's Hotel Cheyenne is a theme park of its own, a fantasy re-creation of an Old West town. There'll be gunfights around the covered wagon parked on Desperado Street, a sandy boulevard banked by "saloons," "goldsmiths," "jails" -- all facades for the 14 two-story wood-frame buildings that house the guests.
