Full cast announced for Macbeth at Donmar Warehouse with David Tennant

Full casting has been announced for a new production of Macbeth at Donmar Warehouse.

Directed by Donmar Associate Director Max Webster, the show will open on 15 December 2023, with previews from 8 December, and runs until 10 February 2024.

As previously announced, David Tennant will feature in the title role with Cush Jumbo starring as Lady Macbeth.

Joining them are 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) and Benny Young (Duncan/Doctor).

A spellbinding story of love and murder, the renewing power of nature, and of the internal struggles of a damaged man as he tries to control his destiny.

This bracingly fresh production of the Scottish play places us inside the mind of Macbeth, asking are we ever really responsible for our actions?

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.

Macbeth will have sound design by Gareth Fry, design by Rosanna Vize, lighting by Bruno Poet, movement direction by Shelley Maxwell, music by Alasdair Macrae, fight directors Rachel Bown-Williams and Ruth Cooper-Brown of RC-Annie Ltd and casting by Anna Cooper.
