On his way home from battle, distinguished Scottish war-hero, Macbeth, and his companion, Banquo, are stopped by three witches, who prophesy that Macbeth will become King of Scotland. Rather than wait for the prophecy to fulfil itself - and spurred on by his domineering wife - Macbeth embarks on a terrifying, tyrannical course of bloodshed, to ensure that his ambitions come to fruition.

With its dark, thrilling narrative, its obsessive, driven characters, presided over by witches, ghosts and spectral daggers, Macbeth is many people’s favourite of all Shakespeare’s plays.

Fresh from his triumph in Bent, Matt Hyde will play Macbeth, with Adelaide’s Rebecca Kemp as his Lady.
