After success in battle, Macbeth meets a coven of argumentative witches, who promise him that one day he’ll wear the crown of Scotland. An epic journey follows, full of murder, betrayal and far too much strawberry jam...

We are excited to announce our touring production of Macbeth, supported by CAST and Cambridge in
America. As a company we have worked to foreground reproductive anxieties latent in the text,
contextualizing Macbeth’s ‘fruitless crown’ in the wake of a recent and painful still-birth, which in turn
sharpens Lady Macbeth’s famous reproductive language: ‘take my milk for gall’; ‘I have given suck and know how tender ‘tis to love the babe that milks me’. The detailed medieval costume against the paired back set places primacy on the actor rather than our ever changing stages, aiding in the flexibility of our production and retaining the all important ‘emotional blocking’ at the core of our affective vision.
Macbeth is the 25th CAST production to travel America, following the success of last year’s Julius Caesar. CAST aims at spreading Shakespeare far and wide, both as an educational introduction to the infamous bard, and to stretch and stimulate new discussion among those already acquainted with his works, and Macbeth specifically.
20:00, Thu 13th – Sat 15th March 2025 at King's College Chapel
We will be putting on a 90 minute version of Macbeth in the King's College Chapel in March. This is a unique opportunity to get involved in drama in such a historic space for the first time.
19:30, Fri 15th – Sun 17th March 2024 at The Round Church
Power is a heady drug - it leaves you starving.
A play seeping with hunger, fear and desperation, Shakespeare's 'Macbeth' follows one couple's bloody rise to the throne of Scotland.
An intimate, intense staging in the historic Round Church - murder’s never tasted quite so good.
19:00, Sat 9th September 2023 at / a virtual live-recorded performance.
An age-old tragedy of ambition and fate brought into new light: in a world of corporate greed, the man with the capital is King. But the King is dead, and Macbeth now wears the crown.
How far will someone go to achieve their ambitions?
How far can someone ignore their consciousness?
And how long does Macbeth have until Fate catches up to him?
Corporate espionage; it’s cut-throat.
Macbeth (Online!) presents a one-night only fundraiser performance for Crisis UK. From rehearsals to performance night, this show is conducted entirely online, exploring Shakespeare's gothic classic with dynamic contemporary flavour.

Join us in the beautiful Fellows' Gardens once again for GADS' annual Shakespeare production. Starring some familiar returning faces and debut stars, let the much-loved GADS crew take you on an adventure through Shakespeare's famous tragedy, Macbeth. Yet, as always with GADS, things don't always seem to go to quite exactly to plan, and the play seems to take an awfully wrong turn...

"Away, and mock the time with fairest show.
False face must hide what the false heart doth know."
The Scottish play is coming to Cambridge as you’ve never seen before. With an entirely BME cast, this production will transport you to an underground urban sprawl, illuminating the shaded power, deceit, and ambition in a city that never sleeps, for Macbeth looks on. All hell, Macbeth!
A man meets thrice-tongued Fate who tells him he shall be King. Goaded by his Queen, and both immediately drunk on their future, they are soon consumed by the duality of power: both wielding it and submitting to it. Treading blood, the Macbeths drive towards their Fate: guns ready, minds broken.
"I am in blood
Stepped in so far that, should I wade no more,
Returning were as tedious as go o'er."

COGGLES presents...Macbeth: He Meant Well!
Was Macbeth really a murderer, or was he just misunderstood? Opinions differ. Banquo is fairly set on his, but there is another side to the story. Featuring three witches, one Scottish accent and an increasing number of sheets, "Macbeth: He Meant Well" explores the difficulties of trying not to murder people when your very name is cursed and there is a coven of witches following you around talking about the weather.
COGGLES (Cambridge Old Graduate and Graduand Light Entertainment Society) are a society that takes theatre to people who don't normally get a chance to see it. In particular, we are a part of CULES, who do the same thing, but we do it in the middle of exam term where there is nothing else going on! Previous venues have included a variety of old people's homes and Fulbourn Mental Health Hospital.
