Depicting themes of climate emergency, cost of living crisis, depictions of anxiety and references to colonialism, this was an inspiring piece of theatre given by this special company.

There is no doubt that these young people are inspired to perform so professionally by the outstanding Director that is Sam Densham assisted by Junior Mujica and Greg Densham.

From the first word we knew that this was a special performance of ...Macbeth,Macbeth,Macbeth,Macbeth.written by Kirsty Housley. exclusively for the National Theatre Connections FestivaL.

The space at the bijou theatre, The Melville Theatre Abergavenny came alive with this intense, yet thought provoking piece of theatre.

The appreciative audience were spellbound by what was given.

Every member of this cast deserve praise for their intense work to make this happen
