Macbeth Alone

Event information

Macbeth Alone is a thrilling and visceral reimagining of Shakespeare’s most haunting tragedy — performed by one man alone.

Set within one single cell, this is a claustrophobic descent into the fractured mind of a man determined to wear the crown forever. From the thunder of the battlefield to the silence of a sleepless night, from prophecy to paranoia, Macbeth Alone draws audiences into the psychological storm of a doomed king.

Chris Garner (Coronation Street, War Horse) portrays every character. every betrayal every daggered vision — summoned in real time through the voice, body, and unravelling soul of one performer.

Stripped of ensemble, staging, and spectacle, what remains is raw: one man, one voice, and the ghosts that will not let him rest.

This is Shakespeare, distilled to its darkest essence — a fever dream of power, guilt, and fate.

Duration 60 minutes. No interval. Age Advisory: 12yrs+
