Is this a real knife? Is this just fantasy?”
Enjoy Shakespeare's spooky tragedy like never before, as six actors deploy wittily rewritten pop classics, uproariously silly comedy, and an array of highly questionable props to recount the rise and fall of Scotland's most murdery king! Expect queens and witches, Queen and B*Witched, ABBA, stabbers, and much more besides.
With gloriously repurposed numbers from Broadway, the charts, and the Golden Oldies, Macbeth: The Musical is a hilarious ride, suitable for buffs and beginners, wee ones and wizened ones, and Scots and Sassenachs alike!
No bagpipes were harmed in the making of this musical.
Contains mild comic violence.
Audience reviews:

by Joel Horwood
Set over one extraordinary day in an ordinary village, Wolves Are Coming For You explores just how much wild we're comfortable with, as a small community is forced to pull together against an invisible but potentially deadly threat.
Someone has seen a wolf. Where did it come from? How many are there? Someone must be able to do something about them. Otherwise, how will our children get to school?
Someone has seen a wolf! Or did they?
As the story spreads through the town over the following 24 hours, each of the characters is forced to confront their own demons and decide whether to fight or flee. And as the sun rises the following day, each of them is different in some way from the person they were the day before. Whether the wolves actually existed, we’ll never know – but they’ve served their purpose nonetheless.
