"Foul whisperings are abroad, unnatural deeds do breed unnatural troubles".
Gripping, intense, and relentlessly powerful - Macbeth is coming to the Lyceum... and there's a storm brewing...
Liam Brennan (The Winter's Tale, The Merchant of Venice, Othello) stars as the title character, led astray by three conniving witches, and gradually overwhelmed by his own lust for power.
With the encouragement of his scheming wife (Allison McKenzie, River City), Macbeth murders the rightful king and seizes the Scottish throne. And so begins a period of tyranny and fear, cold brutality and civil war. Macbeth’s paranoia and guilt grow stronger by the day, the bodies begin to mount up, and he finds himself haunted by the past and tormented by the fear of losing his new kingdom.
