Macbeth Synopsis & Storyline
Set in an industrial chamber that is
equally military hospital ward, kitchen, torture chamber, and
abattoir, this austere and eerily modern production of Macbeth
rings with the echoes of Stalinist terror. Disturbing and
unsettling, it centers on the building tensions, paranoia and fear
that lead to violence and murder.
Patrick Stewart reprises his Olivier Award-nominated role of Macbeth
after starring in this production in the Chichester Festival, West
End and at Brooklyn Academy of Music. The play comes to Broadway
directly after a sold-out run at BAM.
