Macbeth (an undoing)
Tue 14 - Sat 25 May
‘Come, you spirits
That tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here,
And fill me from the crown to the toe top-full
Of direst cruelty! Make thick my blood'
Hot on the heels of its international tour of New York and London, the 5-star smash hit returns to The Lyceum written and directed by Zinnie Harris, our award-winning Associate Artistic Director.
The retelling of the classic Scottish play puts the iconic Lady Macbeth at the heart of the story. When her husband returns victorious from the battlefield with a prophecy that he is to become King of Scotland, Lady Macbeth will stop at nothing to make their darkest ambition a reality. Ruthless and driven, unstoppable in her pursuit of power, yet she quickly descends into madness and despair.
By putting her front and centre, it begs the question - have we really heard the whole story?
Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh in association with Rose Theatre and Theatre for a New Audience present Macbeth (an Undoing).
Supported by Reid Hoffman,Kathy and Ned Hoyt, Michael and Tammy Thorson, Nancy Hale Hoyt, Inventure Capital LLC,Stephen W Dunn Theatre Fund,Sir Ian Rankin OBE DL FRSE FRSL FRIAS, David and Judith Halkerston,and Margaret Duffy and Peter Williamson.
Macbeth (an undoing) will be going on tour in 2024 to TFANA, New York and Rose Theatre, London.
