The Macbeth Curse

The Macbeth CurseT1309384552
It's 1902 and when Sir Alphonse King and his Sixty Minute Shakespeare Ensemble start rehearsing Macbeth for a Royal Command Performance they find themselves struggling against spookily unexpected circumstances. While Lady Macbeth is busy complaining about Sir Alphonse's ego and Macduff is playing the fool to keep everyone's spirits up, mild-mannered stage manager Miss Jessica Peacock has to battle her stage-fright to save the show. But with an actor missing, props breaking in their hands and ghostly goings on growing by the minute, the entire troupe begin to fear the worst. Have they fallen foul of the infamous Macbeth Curse?
Author Terry Deary

Production details

World Premiere. In a chaotically condensed version of Shakespeare's own words and integrated with Musical Hall songs and cutting-edge Edwardian theatricality, Terry Deary's brand new play is a perfect introduction to the magic and madness of Macbeth. Studio
