Something wicked this way comes"

Macbeth

As “light thickens” and darkness falls, the atmospheric and breath-taking backdrop of King’s College Fellows’ garden provides the perfect setting for Shakespeare’s powerful exploration of murder, prophecy and ambition, in a world steeped in power-mongering, sorcery and war. An unexpected prophecy sends Scottish general Macbeth on a feverish and murderous quest to become king. Spurred on by his ruthless wife, all must fall before them. Don’t miss this dynamic and bloody production!

No knee-bending to trendy revisionism, but rather a tour-de-force of Elizabethan drama —The Times
