Macbeth - Tyrant or Treasure?

Episode 1 of 5

Was Macbeth a murderous tyrant or a generous and popular king? He’s back to help sort fact from fiction. Stars Liam Brennan.

Was the legendary Macbeth a murdering monster, bloody tyrant and paranoid thief of the throne or generous and popular king who ruled a happy Scotland for 17 years?

If you think you know all about him, then think again as the real Macbeth comes back to life to help sort fact from the more familiar Shakespearean fiction.

Liam Brennan stars as MacBeth with members of The National Theatre of Scotland.
