Dickens Theatre Company present the Bard’s bloodiest tragedy!
Set against a back-drop of wars, witchery and treasonous plotting, Shakespeare’s Macbeth remains ominously relevant in the 21st Century.
“I have no spur to prick the sides of my intent, but only vaulting ambition, which o'erleaps itself”.
With the infamous Porter as our narrator, 6 actors present the play’s cauldron of characters, as Macbeth & Lady M make their perilous descent towards Hell.
“What is Done Cannot Be Undone!”
As part of DTC’s ‘Revision on Tour’ (alongside Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde), this Macbeth entertains and educates… to the bitter end.
Dickens Theatre Company has successfully adapted classic English GCSE literature for the UK stage since 2015, bringing the text off the page onto the stage.
They are thrilled to be bringing their engaging adaptation of the ‘Scottish Play’ back to The Guildhall in March 2025.
