While a lot of script work has gone into the process of adapting the original Macbeth into the production of (Lady) Macbeth you’ll all get to enjoy this summer, a lot of historical work has been part of the process too! Like many of Shakespeare’s characters, Lady Macbeth (whose given name was Gruoch) was a real person with a rich backstory that we never get to see. Our immensely talented cast is working hard on devising ways to bring that story to life.
