Macbeth

by William Shakespeare

How far would you go to get what you want?

One ambitious soldier and his ambitious wife. A kingdom up for grabs. Several steps on which he must fall down, or else o'erleap, for in his way they lie...

What happens to our grip on reality when all hell breaks loose? To find out, dive into this fast-paced, minimalistic two-hander that explores connection and alienation in a dark and violent world.

Brought to you by Ant Henson's new professional theatre company, Most Rare Vision, this striking production of Macbeth invites you into Shakespeare's classic thriller like you've never seen it before

OUR HISTORY

The Bread & Roses is an award-winning free house right in the heart of Clapham. Owned by The Battersea and Wandsworth Trade Union Council (BWTUC) and run by the Workers Beer Company, part of BWTUC Trading, it prides itself as a pub with a social consciousness.

The Bread & Roses is named in recognition of the struggle of workers around the globe for a better quality of life. The name is taken from a song written during a strike of women textile workers in Lawrence Massachusetts, USA in 1912. 27.000 women went out onto the streets and marched for eleven weeks to improve their working conditions. Their banners called for bread and roses. A poet among them, James Oppenheim, wrote the lyrics to what became the trademark song for women trade unionists around the world. It is still sung by delegates to conclude the ICTU Women's Conference.
