Forthcoming
Macbeth
by William Shakespeare
2012 sees the 448th anniversary of Shakespeare's birth and, for some reason, that inauspicious number of years has given rise to an enormous number of productions and festivals in honour of the Bard. So, rather than buck the trend we thought we would join in and present one of his best known and shortest tragedies, written by Shakespeare for the new English king, James I who was, of course, also King James VI of Scotland.
This production will be directed by Calum Grant who will be setting the play during the period of the Great War 1914 - 1918.
Venue: The Merlin Theatre Bath Road Frome BA11 2HG
Performances: 22nd, 23rd & 24th November 2012
Time: 7.45 p.m.
Tickets: £9.00 full £7.50 concessions £5.00 school children
