About the Show
The Scottish Play – theatrical types consider saying its name to be unlucky! Thrust into power by his overwhelming desires and an over ambitious wife, Macbeth finds his only security is to murder and murder again. From “When shall we three meet again” to “is this a dagger I see before me” a powerful Shakespearean drama.
Blazing with tension, energy and passion, experience a powerful new interpretation of Macbeth, the Ensemble’s boldest production to date. Fuelled by greed, ambition and desire, the Macbeths’ desperation to survive is reflected in the fierce reverberations of Johnny Cash, The xx and The Rolling Stones in this thrilling tragedy.
