Macbeth

"It is the performance of a single actor, Stephen Dillane, and it is a performance that defies belief."
- Los Angeles Times

Haunting the stage and crackling with supernatural energy, Stephen Dillane's compelling one man performance incorporates each individual character as if they are sliding in and out of Macbeth's disturbed conscience.

As developed by Dillane and director Travis Preston, Macbeth becomes not only a portrait of a mind unravelling in the presence of the horrors it has engendered, but also a poetic and personal meditation upon the corrupting influence of power.

Acknowledged as one of the finest actors of his generation, Stephen Dillane's theatre credits include Angels in America, Hamlet (directed by Peter Hall), Uncle Vanya and The Real Thing, for which he won a Tony Award. His films range fro Welcome To Sarajevo to King Arthur and The Hours in which he played Leonard Woolf opposite Nicole Kidman.

Accompanying Dillane's virtuoso performance are three live musicians, including experimental jazz composer Vinny Golia whose original score underpins the play's nightmarish dreamscape.

"Dillane’s performance is magnificent and makes for fascinating and original theatre."
