National Theatre Live: Macbeth

Directed by Simon Godwin

With Ralph Fiennes, Indira Varma, Ben Allen, Ewan Black and Levi Brown

Blood will have blood. Unbridled ambition, supernatural forces, and murderous desires reign supreme in Shakespeare's most poetic examination of evil. When three witches tell Macbeth that he will become King of Scotland, he plots with his wife to attain the title through an assassination; a bloody act that gives him his crown and sends him careening down the path of his own undoing.
