What to Expect
Together, we’ll explore:
- The strange and powerful world of the witches – drawing on myth, folklore and imaginative backstories
- Themes of war, ambition, prophecy and “dangerous” knowledge
- Key moments, sounds and images from the play
- How Macbeth comes to life on stage
From ancient Greece to the Peaks, we’ll trace influences and inspirations that make this story feel surprisingly modern – and deeply relevant.
