The Mystical Ukraine Trilogy is an experimental avant-garde project Mystical Ukraine Trilogy based on Macbeth, Richard III, and King Lear, directed by Vlad Troitskyi in 2004–2006. These performances present an attempt at transplanting Shakespeare’s texts into the cultural space of another nation as they emphasize the idea of Shakespearean drama as a perfect tool for revealing societal tensions and contradictions. Troitskyi’s approach to Shakespeare’s texts as a soil in which elements of authentic Ukrainian culture can flourish enables the expansion of the horizons for interpretation and reinterpretation of the ideas contained in Shakespeare’s original play-texts.
