Revival of William Shakespeare's classic tragedy starring acting powerhouse Daniel Craig and Ruth Negga

What's Macbeth Like?

Macbeth is Shakespeare's tale of malice, matrimony and murder. Macbeth tells the story of a couple’s obsession with power and how to get it through by committing murder. This new adaptation for Broadway captures the passion and ferocity of Shakespeare’s most haunting text and it has two powerful actors that can do it justice.

Is Macbeth Good for Kids?

The show is recommended for 12 +, but the content of he show involves murder and violence that are not intended for younger audiences.
