Alan Cumming's Solo Take on Macbeth Begins Broadway Performances

Tony winner Alan Cumming's one-man version of Macbeth is set to begin performances April 7 at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre. The reimagined thriller will officially open on April 21, and is slated to play a limited engagment through June 30. 

This unique interpretation of William Shakespeare’s classic tragedy examines the mind of a patient deep within a psychiatric ward. The production will also utilize various multimedia to explore the original text and will feature Cumming in every role.

The production features co-direction by John Tiffany and Andrew Goldberg with set and costume design by Merle Hensel, lighting design by Natasha Chivers, sound design by Fergus O’Hare and projection design by Ian William Galloway.
