MACBETH

ALL HAIL, MACBETH.

David Tennant and Cush Jumbo return to their landmark performances in Shakespeare’s most extraordinary psychological drama.

Unsettling intimacy and brutal action combine at breakneck speed as Max Webster directs the tale of love, murder, and nature’s power of renewal.  Groundbreaking sound design and live Celtic folk music (all played through lightweight headphones provided) immerse the audience in every whisper, cry and thought.

Featuring the original company of the sold out Donmar Warehouse season, this unforgettable staging will now play a strictly limited run at London’s Harold Pinter Theatre from 1 October 2024.

★★★★★ ‘David Tennant is tremendous and superbly partnered by Cush Jumbo.  The rich aural concept emphasises the eerie brilliance of Shakespeare’s dark, image-laden text.' Financial Times

★★★★★ ‘An act of risk-taking theatre that also feels darkly, magically, like real-life.  It’s as if the play is being discovered for the first time.’ [...] ‘Cush Jumbo is terrific throughout, at once thoughtful and heartless.’ Daily Telegraph

★★★★★ ‘David Tennant thrills in a production full of wolfish imagination and alarming surprise.  Cool, cocky and utterly arresting.’ The Guardian

★★★★ ‘Never for a moment can you tear your attention away.’ WhatsOnStage
