Full casting has been announced for Macbeth at the Donmar Warehouse – starring David Tennant in the title role and Cush Jumbo as Lady Macbeth.
Max Webster’s revival will feature: Moyo Akandé (Ross), Annie Grace (Musician & Gentlewoman), Brian James O’Sullivan(Donalbain/Soldier/Murderer & Musician), Casper Knopf (Macduff’s Son/Fleance/Young Siward), Cal MacAninch (Banquo), Kathleen MacInnes (The Singer & ensemble), Alasdair Macrae (Musician & ensemble), Rona Morison (Lady Macduff), Noof Ousellam (Macduff), Raffi Phillips (Macduff’s Son/Fleance/Young Siward), Jatinder Singh Randhawa (The Porter/Seytan), Ros Watt (Malcolm), andBenny Young (Duncan/Doctor).
This production of Macbeth will use binaural technology to create an intense and unnerving 3D sound world, which the audience will experience through wearing headphones, placing them right inside the head of the central couple. Director Max Webster will collaborate with sound designer Gareth Fry, who previously used binaural sound for Complicité’s multi-award winning production The Encounter. Live music will come from an onstage Scottish folk band lead by Alasdair Macrae and featuring award-winning Gaelic singer Kathleen MacInnes.
Part of the Donmar’s 30th birthday celebrations, Macbeth will play for 10 weeks from 8 December 2023 to 10 February 2024.
The full creative team are director Max Webster, who was nominated for a Tony Award 2023 this month for Life of Pi, Rosanna Vize (Designer), Bruno Poet (Lighting Designer), Gareth Fry (Sound Designer), Shelley Maxwell (Movement Director), Alasdair Macrae (Composer & Musical Director), Rachel Bown-Williams and Ruth Cooper-Brown of RC-Annie Ltd (Fight Directors), and Anna Cooper CDG(Casting).
Other star led productions of Shakespeare classics include Macbeth starring Ralph Fiennes and Indira Varma and King Lear starring Kenneth Branagh.
