About

Step into a contemporary, Edwardian Gothic-inspired pub and experience our adaptation of Shakespeare's Macbeth, a timeless tale of ambition, power, and madness. The play follows Macbeth's rise to power, his descent into tyranny and the bloody consequences of his actions. Don't miss out on this haunting and powerful production that explores the underbelly of human psychology, revealing the dark forces that propel us towards greatness and our desires, made manifest through witchcraft and the occult.

Decolonise Shakespeare (DS) is a theatre collective based at Sussex University, with the support of the local queer theatre scene in Brighton.

Please note this performance includes themes of violence, the erotic and the occult - discretion is advised.
