Calling all English GCSE students, teachers and literature lovers!
Dickens Theatre Company proudly presents Macbeth, Shakespeare’s bloodiest tragedy, arriving at Kings Theatre in March 2027.
In this inventive adaptation, Shakespeare’s Chorus becomes our narrator, guiding audiences through the tangled web of ambition, betrayal and dark prophecy with engaging modern verse. Performed by an ensemble of just six actors, this fast-paced, text-faithful production brings the Scottish Play vividly to life through dynamic multi-rolling performance.
Set against a backdrop of war, witchery and treason, Macbeth remains chillingly relevant in the 21st century.
“What’s done cannot be undone!”
Part of DTC’s highly acclaimed Revision on Tour programme (alongside Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde and A Christmas Carol), this accessible Macbeth is specifically designed to support GCSE English study while remaining entertaining for all audiences.
All matinee performances also include the option to stay for a free 20-minute post-show Q&A with the cast and director, a hugely popular addition for school groups, giving students the chance to ask questions, deepen their understanding of the text and explore the production further.

Once the curtain rises, there’s no turning back…
BLACKOUT is an immersive theatrical experience that pulls you into a world where fear and imagination collide.
Late at night, a small cast gathers inside an old theatre for what should be a straightforward rehearsal. But the building carries a reputation. Whispered stories, half-remembered warnings and long-held superstitions that most performers dismiss… until they can’t.
When the theatre doors close, something shifts and what should be fiction starts to feel dangerously real. Expect the unexpected as reality and storytelling begin to blur, plunging you into a shadowed world where nothing is as it seems.
BLACKOUT puts you inside the experience, where every movement, sound and shadow pulls you deeper into the dark. Brace yourself for unnerving twists, creeping shadows, and moments that will make your heart race.
Because fear loves an audience.
