This weekend, Ralph Fiennes’s production of Macbeth is set to make its London debut at the custom-built Dock X warehouse – and there’s still plenty of tickets available.

The Harry Potter and Menu actor will be starring as the title character, while Torchwood and Game of Thrones actress Indira Varma joins him as Lady Macbeth.

The site-specific production has been touring around warehouses in Liverpool and Edinburgh since December and is now heading to London before an April stint in Washington DC.

So far the show, directed by Simon Godwin, has gained much praise for Fiennes’ and Varma’s performances, as well as the unique warehouse staging, which has been set up like a modern day war.

Before taking on the role, Fiennes commented on Macbeth’s relevance to the world conflicts going on today: “Macbeth is a play that always carries relevance, but with wars in Ukraine and Sudan... the play seems particularly current.

“But Shakespeare’s examination of the minds of his protagonists – the intimate nature of this – is what gives the play its brilliant and terrifying focus.”

Performances will run in London for just seven weeks, so here’s how you can get yourself a ticket.
