Macbeth wins three prizes at WhatsOnStage Awards
Sunday, February 09, 2025The winners of the 2025 WhatsOnStage Awards have been announced, with the Donmar Warehouse and West End production of Shakespeare classic psychological drama Macbeth taking home three prizes including Best Play Revival.
David Tennant also won Best Performer in a Play for his turn in the title role, coming out top from a shortlist which also included co-star Cush Jumbo.
The production also won Best Sound Design for Gareth Fry's bracingly fresh approach, which used binaural sound technology to place the audience inside the minds of the Macbeths. The NHB-published, official tie-in edition of Macbeth contains exclusive behind-the-scenes material exploring how this and other elements of the production were conceived and developed – including through a fascinating rehearsal diary, colour photos, and interviews with its leading cast and creative team.
