Macbeth

Power. Prophecy. Paranoia. Verdi’s Macbeth grapples with fate—and pays the price.

Shakespeare’s iconic tragedy becomes a psychological and supernatural battleground. Seduced by a coven of witches’ promises, a power-hungry couple claw their way to the throne—only to find their ambition twisted into madness. Their ruthless ascent is scored by Giuseppe Verdi’s career-defining music, where hissing prophecies and thunderous guilt collide. This is opera at its most thrilling: a blazing, bloodstained descent into paranoia and fate’s cruel grip.
