Event details

Join us in the world of Shakespeare's magical characters as Macbeth's wonderfully wayward Weird Sisters cook up a supernaturally silly adventure of their own.

Following the Olivier Award-nominated, 'fantastically funny' ????? (Broadway World) Midsummer Mechanicals, Shakespeare's Globe and Splendid Productions present a brand-new family show, Rough Magic, in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse this summer.

'Round about the cauldron go;
In the magic creatures throw...'

The Weird Sisters need all the help they can get from their audience of supernatural apprentices (that's you!) and invite you to come along to the show dressed as your favourite magical creature. Fairies, witches, ghosts, or monsters - wherever you belong!

'By the pricking of my thumbs, something SILLY this way comes...'
- Macbeth, Act IV, scene 1 (kind of...)

Rough Magic is recommended for everyone from age 5 to 105.
