Synopsis

“Something wicked this way comes…”

A prophecy from three witches stokes ambition in the heart of Macbeth, one of Scotland’s finest generals. But the path to the crown is drenched with blood, and only murder can make the witches’ words come true.

Encouraged to wield the dagger by his wife, Macbeth falls into a despotic bloodbath of treachery, paranoia, and war.

A staple of the school syllabus, and one of Shakespeare’s most popular and enduring tragedies, Macbeth is the first of the Bard’s plays to be staged at The Little since 2017’s production of Hamlet.
