Petersfield Shakespeare Festival – MACBETH
21 July 2026 to 26 July 2026
7.30pm to 10.15pm
PSF’s exciting new interpretation of Shakespeare’s epic tale of ambition, full of action and adventure performed on a grand scale in the great outdoors.
The darkening summer sky will set the scene for a thrilling version of Macbeth: – In a near-future Britain after civil war, the leaders haven’t fallen, they’ve gone underground.
Hidden deep in the countryside, stripped of technology, media and public scrutiny, power is no longer wielded remotely but seized by force.
In this raw, outdoor reimagining of Shakespeare’s famous Scottish play, ambition thrives in isolation, violence replaces policy, and myth becomes currency.
As civilisation collapses, do we change or do we reveal who we’ve always been? Arrive early to enjoy picnics, live music, street food and a well-stocked bar, all in the buzzing atmosphere of the beautiful Wylds Farm courtyard.
