Macbeth: David Tennant & Cush Jumbo

David Tennant (Doctor Who, Broadchurch) and Cush Jumbo (The Good Wife, Criminal Record) lead a stellar cast in an ‘enthralling’ (★★★★★ Daily Telegraph) new production of Shakespeare’s MACBETH, filmed live at the Donmar Warehouse in London, especially for the big screen. Unsettling

intimacy and brutal action combine at breakneck speed as Max Webster (Life of Pi, Henry V) directs this tragic tale of love, murder, and nature’s power of renewal. With staging ‘full of wolfish imagination and alarming surprise’ (★★★★★ The Guardian), the immersive 5.1 cinema surround sound places the audience inside the minds of the Macbeths, asking are we ever really responsible for our actions?

The Penelopiad

A Riveting Reimagining of Greek Mythology by Margaret Atwood comes to the stage.


Prepare to experience the timeless story of Penelope, the legendary wife of Odysseus, like never before in The Penelopiad, a captivating play by acclaimed author Margaret Atwood. Drawing inspiration from Homer’s Odyssey, Atwood’s sharp and inventive retelling offers a modern, feminist perspective on the iconic myth, reimagining Penelope’s story with wit, intelligence, and boldness. Penelope, often portrayed

as the patient and passive figure waiting for her husband’s return, takes centre stage as a strong and articulate narrator. Through her eyes, we explore the complexities of loyalty, identity, and survival in a male-dominated world.


In this engaging production, Penelope is joined by the chorus of twelve maids who provide their own voices and challenge the narrative of history. With Atwood’s signature blend of humour, emotion, and social commentary, The Penelopiad offers a thought-provoking exploration of power dynamics, gender roles, and the untold stories of women. The play weaves together elements of ancient mythology and contemporary themes, creating a unique theatrical experience that will resonate with audiences.


With original music by local composer Alex Rimes, and direction by Lucy Pitman-Wallace, The Penelopiad promises to be a powerful and unforgettable play, celebrating the voices of women who have been overlooked by history. Don’t miss your chance to witness this captivating production.
