Harry Clarke, Michael Faulkner, Samuel Lane, Maximilian Marston, Laurie Scott, Rhys Warrington and Ronnie Yorke perform as an incredible range of characters to deliver a breathless and brilliant production of Shakespeare’s chilling play of supernatural magic, vaulting ambition and an examination of the dreadful consequences of the insatiable lust for power.
The set and costumes are designed by Morgan Brind with Musical Direction by Alex Beetschen. Costumes are made by Liz Coleman and set construction by Splinter Scenery.
Macbeth is supported by Arts Council England’s Culture Recovery Fund and is ‘See it Safely’ compliant. The company will adhere to all government and industry COVID safety guidance relating to outdoor performance, ensuring every effort is made to protect audiences and company members at all times.
For this unique theatrical experience, audiences are encouraged to bring a chair, a sun hat and a glass of something chilled as the show promises to be another authentic, excellent and magical treat from the company that brought you 2019’s sell-out smash production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
