‘SOMETHING wicked this way comes …’
Described by The Stage as ‘One for the horror film fans…haunting, creepy, eerie’, the Royal Shakespeare Company’s brand new production of Macbeth will be screened at Cardigan’s Theatr Mwldan on Wednesday April, 11, broadcast live from Stratford-upon-Avon.
Returning home from battle, the victorious Macbeth meets three witches on the heath. Driven by their disturbing prophecies, he sets out on the path to murder.
The Royal Shakespeare Company’s contemporary production of Shakespeare’s darkest psychological thriller marks both Christopher Eccleston’s RSC debut and the return of Niamh Cusack to the Company.
“Earthy, urgent and wonderfully sinister,” says the Evening Standard, while The Stage writes: “‘There’s a tender and knotty quality to Eccleston’s and Cusack’s relationship…(they) make a gripping central couple. Niamh Cusack’s Lady Macbeth crackles with pain and frustration.”
“Christopher Eccleston is every inch the vigorous, rugged soldier,” adds the Guardian.
Tickets for RSC: Macbeth on Wednesday, April 11 at 7pm are £12.50 (£11.50) and are
available now from Theatr Mwldan’s box office on 01239 621200, online at www.mwldan.co.uk or via the new Mwldan app.
