Macbeth: Ralph Fiennes & Indira Varma

Macbeth is coming.

A couple corrupted by their relentless lust for power have blood on their hands.

Witness the gripping tale of greed, murder, deception and superstition.

Once you cross the line, you can never turn back.

Tony and BAFTA Award winner Ralph Fiennes (Antony & Cleopatra, Schindler’s List, Coriolanus) and Olivier Award winner Indira Varma (Present Laughter, Game of Thrones, Luther) star in a brand-new ‘full-voltage visceral’ (★★★★ Daily Telegraph) production of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth.

Filmed live at Dock X, a custom-built theatre space in London, this critically acclaimed staging of Macbeth ‘that quickens the pulse, then goes for the jugular’ (★★★★ Financial Times) will be released in cinemas across the UK and selected international territories from 2 May.

Directed by Simon Godwin (Antony & Cleopatra, Romeo and Juliet, Hansard) with set and costume design by Frankie Bradshaw (Jerusalem, Blues for an Alabama Sky), this is a cinematic and ‘beautifully staged’ (★★★★ WhatsOnStage) production that brings ‘Shakespeare’s tragedy pulsing into the present day’ (★★★★★ The I).
