A Scottish noble's lust for political power is provoked by a tantalizing prophecy and stoked by his manipulative spouse in this dark tale of unchecked ambition.
Olivier Award winner and Tony Award nominee Conleth Hill (Lord Varys in Game of Thrones) and Tony, Academy, and Emmy Award winner Frances McDormand (Olive Kitteridge) star as the notorious couple in Shakespeare’s murderous play about the lust for power and the fickleness of fate. Joining these two powerhouses of the stage and screen is an exceptional ensemble of veteran actors from the Bay Area and beyond. Tony- and Obie Award-winning director Daniel Sullivan—dubbed the “go-to guy for Shakespeare” by the New York Times—helms this thrilling new production especially for Berkeley Rep’s audiences.
