three versions of macbeth

2015 Fassbender Macbeth

A classic telling of the Scottish Play that is filmed on location in Scotland, in gritty yet stunningly filmed production.

Fleetwood/Stewart’s Macbeth

Kate Fleetwood steals the show in a stellar performance as Lady Macbeth. Stewart is equally solid. This version is set in a fictional post-WWII Soviet-style “Scotland.” This was a live staged version before the stylized film.

Two Rivers Theater’s Macbeth

This version, produced by Teller of Pen & Teller fame, created this live production using magic to augment the play’s special effects. Filmed as it was performed live, and is the one most like seeing the play performed live.
