James McAvoy to Play Macbeth
February 9th – April 27th 2013
James McAvoy (The Last King of Scotland, Atonement, X-Men) will star in Shakespeare’s Macbeth during the start of the 2013 theatre season. Macbeth will be staged at Trafalgar Studios, directed by Jamie Lloyd as the inaugural production in a season of his work for Trafalgar Transformed.
Jamie Lloyd’s production will see Shakespeare’s darkest tale play out in a dystopian Scotland brutalised by war. Under a toxic fog, Macbeth begins his tormented struggle for power fuelled by ambition and paranoia.
