Killing Swine at Upstairs at the Gatehouse

A powerful new stage production is set to captivate audiences with a dark and atmospheric story inspired by Shakespeare’s Macbeth. Combining psychological tension, mystery, and emotional drama, the production follows a group of reluctant drama students as they attempt to stage the famous tragedy for their end-of-term project.

But as rehearsals unfold, hidden secrets begin to emerge and a shocking event changes everything. As grief turns to obsession, the boundaries between right and wrong begin to unravel — and the world of the play starts to blur with their own.

Exploring ambition, guilt, morality, and the destructive consequences of unchecked emotions, the play offers a modern and haunting reimagining of Shakespeare’s timeless themes.

With a talented young cast and a chilling narrative that keeps viewers guessing until the very end, this production promises to be an unforgettable night of theatre.
