About This Show

One of Shakespeare’s most deeply psychological plays is given a riveting, utterly original reimagining by the National Theatre of Scotland. Tony Award-winning Scottish star of stage, film, and television Alan Cumming returns to Lincoln Center with a one-man interpretation of Shakespeare’s Scottish play.

Directed by John Tiffany and Andrew Goldberg, this Macbeth is set in the clinical green-tiled room of a psychiatric ward in which Cumming is the lone patient, inhabiting each role, including some of Shakespeare’s most complex and troubled characters.
