Fuelled by his wife’s chilling ambition, Macbeth’s reign quickly begins to spiral out of control as he embarks on a bloody and fatal path to cling on to his crown, his friends and his sanity…

Our 2013 production of Shakespeare’s gripping political thriller is still, as of Autumn 2019, our second most popular show. Over 4400 flocked to Holy Trinity Church to see Caroline Devlin's in-the-round production, including some 1100 school children from as far afield as Walsall.

Featuring Johanne Murdock as Lady Macbeth and Tom McGovern as Macbeth, the show gave a nod to its early-history setting, whilst two huge tree structures were built on either side of the audience in which the witches hid, observing the audience and onstage action.
