The Tragedy of Macbeth: February 2025
Shakespeare's dark and sensual tragedy set to thrill this winter
Following auditions so popular that NSC had to schedule an extra day to see everybody, rehearsals have begun on The Tragedy of Macbeth - playing across the Midlands from 19th February to 1st March 2025.
Directed by NSC favourite, Michelle-Louise Wright, this is set to be a step toward the dark. "I have directed the Summer productions until now," says Wright, "and I am looking forward to engaging with the bloodier side of Shakespeare."
Expect something a bit sexier from NSC this season too! "I am interested in exploring the relationship between Macbeth and his Lady too - they are famously the only happily married couple in Shakespeare and the entwinement of the two clearly drives the action of the play." Wright asks, "What makes a man of honour, a soldier and a general, follow such a dark path? And what place does 'great love' have in motivating his Lady to cast her own soul into peril to get him what he deserves?"
