In the Media:
“Act Three's Macbeth was featured in the BBC's Shakespeare Lives Edinburgh #Macbethathon, which saw Lindsey Chapman take to the streets of Edinburgh to find out… just how many Macbeths she can shake a dagger at over one day of toil and trouble.” “This year's Edinburgh Fringe is having Shakespeare for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner with a typically multifarious line-up of Bardulation.”

Selected Review:
TV Bomb review (3 stars): “This bold new adaptation of the Shakespearean classic transplants the action from 11th century Scotland to a modern-day young offender’s institute, and in doing so makes the play accessible in a completely novel way.” Occasionally "clumsy" but overall the adaptation "breathes a new life into the work. Its originality and energy should satisfy existing fans of Shakespeare and perhaps even win a few doubters over to the bard’s side, as well."  http://www.tvbomb.co.uk/review/macbeth-3/
