About the event
Macbeth
In a hospital where routine masks chaos, ambition spreads like contagion. This Macbeth reimagines Shakespeare’s tragedy within sterile corridors and humming machines. A place where care, control, and madness intertwine.
Mac and his partner, both driven by ambition and fear, fight to hold authority in a system that never stops watching. As guilt corrodes from within, reality fractures, voices multiply, whispers echo and the clean lines of the ward give way to psychological collapse.
Told through powerful ensemble performance, the story moves as one body, one mind. The collective heartbeat of a world spiralling out of control. A visceral exploration of power, paranoia, and the fragile boundary between duty and delusion.
Performed by our BA (Hons) Acting Accelerated Company 2026
