“Something wicked this way comes...”
Highly acclaimed Icarus Theatre Collective presents a bold and exciting performance of Shakespeare’s most bloody and fear-filled tragedy.
The vicious, barbaric undercurrent in Shakespeare’s epic erupts in this kinetic, blood-thirsty production. Unrivalled on the battlefield, Macbeth is rewarded with rank and favour by a grateful king. But with each enemy Macbeth butchers to serve his own vaulting ambition, his lust for power takes a more menacing grip until he ferociously seizes the throne. But, violence breeds violence, and a reign born in blood quickly spirals out of control as Macbeth's actions return to destroy him.
Lauded as one of the most fearless and dynamic theatre companies in the UK, receiving critical accolades including Time Out’s Critics Choice, and winning awards from as far afield as Romania, this new production goes straight for the jugular. Blending traditional and inventive physical theatre techniques, original live music, evocative design, and using the original verse, this slick production is perfect for audiences new to Macbeth and those already well acquainted with Shakespeare’s tragedies.
Icarus Theatre Collective launched in 2004 and their reputation for punchy and vibrant productions of contemporary and classical theatre continues to grow. The company’s productions have won countless accolades including Time Out’s Critics Choice, as well as receiving great praise from critics and audiences alike and winning awards from as far afield as Romania (Best Production and Best Actress, The Lesson). Over the years, the company have performed their work both nationally and internationally, including their award-winning production of R.C. Sheriff’s Journey’s End, which played to sell-out houses on its national tour.
