No comments yet, be the first to write a review.
When three witches tell the general Macbeth that he is destined to occupy the throne of Scotland, he and his wife choose to become the instruments of their fate and to kill the first man to stand in their path, the virtuous King Duncan.
But to maintain his position, Macbeth must keep on killing at first Banquo, his old comrade-in-arms; and later, as the atmosphere of guilt and paranoia thickens, anyone who seems a threat to the tyrant and his fear.
From its first moments to the last fulfilment of the witches' prophecy, Shakespeare's gripping account of the psychological experience of murder enthralls the imagination.

"Michael Ball and Imelda Staunton hit the West End in Sweeney Todd as the deliciously demonic double act, this show really is a cut above the rest."
