“Macbeth is a role that any actor at any point in his career would love to take on.”
Heartbreak’s current production, which is set during the First World War, opened in Jephson Gardens in June before touring the country, and will end its run at the Loft Theatre in Leamington, with shows from Thursday (September 4) to Saturday September 6 at 7.30pm. Tickets (£12) are available from 0844 493 4938 or visit www.loft-theatre.co.uk
