Macbeth, but like you’ve never seen before!

Macbeth

Following glowing acclaim on previous tours — “★★★★★ – Explodes with energy and is a genuine treat from start to finish.” (The Stage) — The Mill Arts Centre is delighted to welcome The HandleBards with their wacky and wonderful take on William Shakespeare’s Macbeth.

The HandleBards began with a sense of adventure, a love of Shakespeare, and a clever little pun. Since then, they have grown into an internationally renowned and environmentally sustainable theatre company, delighting audiences around the world with their charmingly chaotic brand of Shakespeare.

Their version of Macbeth has been reworked as a riotous and hilariously high-octane production of the Shakespearian classic as you’ve never seen before. Forget the tears and tragedy, this Macbeth is chock full of mishaps, mayhem and mirth.

You know the story: Three Witches promise Macbeth the Scottish crown, and like any normal person would, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth plot to kill the king. Things get rapidly out of hand from there as foul deeds are done, plots unravel, and mysterious spirits appear…

Fast-paced, inventive, and laugh-out-loud funny, this is performance bound to delight audiences of all ages – Shakespeare lover or not!
