Macbeth (an undoing) (Rose Theatre Kingston) London Reviews and Tickets
Show-Score Member Reviews (3)
See it if You want to watch a modern reimagining of the Shakespearean tragedy where lady Macbeth takes center stage
Don't see it if You get put off by character breaking
See it if You want an edgy update on the original. Interesting costume design - Banquo rocks a kilt. Smoke and mirrors add to stage design.
Don't see it if It felt over long and confusing at times. Lots of blood on display. Don’t go if you prefer the classic plays in their original form. Read more
See it if You like postmodern Shakespeare that healthy increases in tension and atmosphere. There was an emcee who worked well too.
Don't see it if You don't like stains, unnecessary swearing or missing an occasional line.
