Macbeth is dark, grotesque and fun! With wit, danger, and sheer theatrical pleasure our Macbeth is performed to be understood – and enjoyed.

Shakespeare wrote for a theatre in which actors and audience could see and respond to one another. Sharing the same light, we invite you into a communal experience. Music, movement and dance erupt from the action. Oft cut characters reclaim their place, sharpening the play’s humor and strange logic.

Strip away the romance, and Macbeth is a coward, a fawning politician and a bully “smacking of every sin that has a name”. Tragedy flows from human choices: do we embrace damnation or choose virtue? Turn a blind eye or resist?

Cast beyond conventional expectations of type and developed through months of intensive ensemble training, Sweet Thunder’s Macbeth brings Shakespeare’s language into direct relationship with the audience.
