Dickens Theatre Company present the Bard’s bloodiest tragedy! Our unique adaptation of the ‘Scottish Play’ tours theatres across the UK. With the infamous Porter acting as narrator, an ensemble of 7 actors create a cauldron of characters, as Macbeth and Lady Macbeth make their perilous descent towards Hell. Set against a back-drop of war, witchery and treasonous plotting, Macbeth’s rise and fall from power remains ominously relevant in the 21st Century.

“What’s done cannot be undone!” As part of DTC’s Revision on Tour (alongside Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde and A Christmas Carol), this Macbeth entertains and educates... to the bitter end.


Running time: 1 hour 45 minutes including interval

Please allow for roughly another 20 minutes if you are staying for the post matinee Q&A session.

“If you are studying Macbeth at GCSE...it all starts with this show.
A revelation for my English students.
