Setting the record straight? Critics of Shakespeare's wholesale defamation of the fiery Macbeth beware! Now, at last, is a new play, based on new facts about the life of the much maligned Scottish king. Deborah McAndrew's King Macbeth paints a compelling portrait of a gifted and charismatic young man, blown by the winds of birth, grief and love to the brink of power. Using a haunting blend of music, prose and verse, McAndrew discovers passion, violence and surprising tenderness in 11th Century Scotland. The reputation of a great man is restored.. or is it?| 4 Mar 09 to 5 Mar 09 | Lyceum Theatre Crewe, Cheshire Performance Details => Venue archive |
