Fringe - Macbeth

The Scoop at More London Free Festival – Fringe – June

Week 1 – The Pantaloons perform Macbeth

Get ready for killer lines, killer crimes and some seriously weird sisters as The Pantaloons theatre company return to The Scoop with more of their own brand open-air Shakespeare mayhem following last year's hugely successful Romeo & Juliet.
 
The critically-acclaimed touring company put a fun-filled twist on Shakespeare's classic tale of madness and murder with live music, audience interaction, puppetry and plenty of fast-paced fun for the whole family.
 
Returning from war, Macbeth meets three witches who tell him he will one day become King of Scotland. Goaded on by his devious wife, Macbeth kills King Duncan and the prophesy is fulfilled... But will the killing end there? What will the witches next prophesy be?
 
This is The Pantaloons' third visit to The Scoop and Macbeth promises to be their most exciting production yet.
