Ralph Fiennes in Macbeth with Indira Varma - review with photos

Ralph Fiennes (Voldemort) and Indira Varma (Game of Thrones) star in Shakespeare's great tragedy about guilt. Director Simon Godwin's production is adapted by Emily Burns and set in a modern war zone. The set design is by Frankie Bradshaw. The cast also features Steffan Rhodri, Ben Turner, Lucy Mangan, Danielle Fiamanya, and Lola Shalam.
Reviewer Paul Seven loved the two stars but what did he think of the war zone setting and the non-theatrical venue Dock X?
Macbeth can be seen at Dock X until 23 March 2024 and then in Washington DC from 5 April until 5 May.
There are UK cinema screenings in May 2024. Details from https://www.macbethincinemas.com/
