Intimately set within the ancien t walls of Exeter's St Nicholas Priory\, the production take us on an exci ting journey through time along the blood-stained path to power.\n\n“I a m afraid to think what I have done.”\n\nHear these ancient lines resonat e through a building older than the play itself as your imagination roams back to the 11th century. Macbeth offers us a chance to reflect on the nat ure of trust\, ambition and power - forces that still shape our world toda y. As we experience this tragic masterpiece\, rich with poetry\, we ask ou rselves where our loyalty should really lie: towards loved ones\, leaders\ , land or just ourselves? Expect to see this classic tale in a bold new li ght.\n\nWild Thyme\, founded by Charlie Coldfield and Micha Colombo\, work s with professional actors to breathe new life into classical texts. As lo ng-term collaborators of Lightbear Lane and this production builds on the success of Measure for Measure (2024)\, Titus Andronicus (2025) and The Me rchant of Venice (2026)as part of the inaugural South West Shakespeare Fes tival in Exeter. Their production of Macbeth was originally created in col laboration with Villages in Action and The Italian Garden\, Great Ambrook in summer 2026.\n\nOur shared vision is to give audiences an entertaining experience of quality Shakespeare close to home\, and to give performers a platform to build community and develop their classical skills.\n\nWhethe r you're an aficionado or simply curious\, join us to discover together wh at Shakespeare can bring for us today. We believe theatre should provoke\, inspire and bring us together\, and that is what we strive to do with all of our projects.\n\n\nAudience feedback for Macbeth\n"Completely captivat ing"\n"Very atmospheric"\n"Everybody in the audience was entranced."\n"I h ad goosebumps and held my breath for the next scene."
