The Watermill Ensemble presents

ON TOUR - MACBETH

at Wilton's Music Hall
By William Shakespeare

Wed 22 Jan 2020 - Sat 08 Feb 2020

Passion, ambition and desire ignite in this thrilling tragedy.

The Watermill Ensemble return to Wilton's Music Hall following the success of Twelfth Night in 2018.

Blazing with tension, energy and passion, experience a powerful new interpretation of Macbeth, the Watermill Ensemble’s boldest production to date. Fuelled by greed, ambition and desire, the Macbeths’ desperation to survive is reflected in the fierce reverberations of Johnny Cash, The xx and The Rolling Stones. 

The Watermill Theatre is a regional producing theatre touring work across the UK. Recent touring productions include The Wipers Times, Crazy For You and Amélie.  

The Watermill Ensemble was formed in 2017 and has developed a unique approach to Shakespeare, touring to thousands of people in the UK and internationally.  

Macbeth is performed in repertory with A Midsummer Night's Dream (29 January 2020 – 15 February 2020).
