The National Theatre will open a tour of Rufus Norris's Macbeth at The Lowry in Salford in September.
Rufus Norris said: "I'm delighted that Macbeth will be touring the UK and Ireland following its run in the Olivier Theatre earlier in the year. We're really excited by what is coming out of the rehearsal room and it's particularly rewarding to be able to take this brilliant play to so many towns and cities. We fully intend to give audiences a fresh and dynamic view of this timeless classic."
