The PumpHouse: Macbeth – Blood and Bluegrass

Critically acclaimed, highly original adaptation of the Bard’s dark tale. Tragic yet uplifting, tender and raucous, poignant and high-energy.

Set to a live score of Americana and bluegrass music, the multi-award winning New Zealand troupe blend classic literature with a modern twist alongside original arrangements of Mumford and Sons, Dolly Parton, and The SteelDrivers, creating an emotional, accessible, toe-tapping theatrical experience.

Winner Best Theatre Award Adelaide Fringe 2025. Received multiple five-star reviews Edinburgh Fringe 2025, including: ‘Fantastically gifted team’ ***** (Theatre Weekly); ‘Macbeth as you’ve never seen it before’ ***** (Musical Theatre); ‘Bravo’ ***** (Wee Review).
