Royal Shakespeare Company Encore: Macbeth

Director
Polly Findlay
Certificate
12A
Running Time
210 mins

There’s an awful lot of Macbeth about at the moment, but if you’re not already tired of something wicked this way coming, Polly Findlay‘s production of the Bard’s great tragedy of greed and lust for power is presented as a dark psychological thriller and marks Christopher Eccleston‘s RSC debut in the title role.

Niamh Cusack returns to the company as murderous Lady Macbeth. The play is broadcast live from Stratford-upon-Avon.
