Friday 8th November 7.30pm

“Be bloody, bold and resolute, laugh to scorn the power of man for none of woman born shall harm Macbeth” So say the three witches to Macbeth who, with ‘predictions’ like these, fool Macbeth and of course, bring nothing but harm both to him and to Scotland. Their actions lead to the deaths of many, including Macbeth and his wife, and a legacy of chaos and betrayal.
In this specially abridged version by Ruth Hewitt of Shakespeare’s classic play, accompanied by live music and special effects, you will feel the tension, fear and disbelief as Macbeth’s murderous behaviour escalates.
Come along to experience a truly thought-provoking and sinister theatrical performance at The Broadbent Theatre this November. Several of our parishioners are involved in the production. Click here for more details.
Some people have already expressed an interest in attending the Friday 8th November 7.30pm performance.
Month of the Holy Souls

These will be placed in a box that will remain on the Sanctuary throughout November.
