Craig Detour: "Macbeth" on Broadway

Hello listeners, patrons of the arts, and theatre lovers, The people who have played James Bond are more than just movie stars.

They're actors!

They're respected thespians!

One need look no further than the most recently retired 007, Daniel Craig.

His first post-Bond assignment: a modern reinterpretation of William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" on Broadway, co-starring Ruth Negga.

The show is directed by Sam Gold.

Jason Kim was able to make it to a presentation during its first week.

He attended the Wednesday March 30th show with a few members of the Bond fan community.

You'll hear from Tim Guccione and his significant other Jackie Capone, as well as Boomer and Sarra Spillane.

As for Jason, his keen sense of observation lent itself to a host of topics: Daniel Craig mopping the floor, a theatrical gather all, an obligatory Keri Russell reference, being in the presence of Daniel Craig's piercing blue eyes, a condensed episode of "What's Daniel wearing?", the history of Lady Macbeth performances, and cracking open a brewski after murdering a friend.

So sit back and feel the rush of tension and passion that only a classic tragedy can muster.

If you see witches three, run away.

Fast. "Macbeth" is playing at the Longacre Theatre in New York until July 10th.

Tim Guccione co-produces and co-hosts the No Time to Bond podcast.
