Something wicked this way comes! Ralph Fiennes is bringing his version of Shakespeare’s Macbeth to Edinburgh in early 2024.

The veteran actor – perhaps best known for playing Voldemort in the Harry Potter series – will star alongside Game of Thrones actress Indira Varma in a pop-up theatre for a two week run of the renowned Scottish play. Edinburgh is just one of three UK locations chosen to host the show, alongside London and Liverpool. Here’s how to get tickets and all you need to know about the production.

Ralph Fiennes will be performing as Macbeth in Edinburgh for a two week run in January 2024 at the Royal Highland Centre in Ingliston, on the outskirts of the Capital and the home of the Royal Highland Show. Dates start from Saturday January 13, with the last performance taking place on January 27, 2024. There will be a number of shows throughout the week, with a matinee performance on Saturdays.

The venue is a pop-up theatre with room for just under 1,000 people in the audience. Seating wraps around the stage and the space is designed to “break free from the confines of traditional theatres”. It is hosted by long-time Fringe producers and venue operators Underbelly, which is co-producing the show.
