That changes when Banquo (Ross Anderson) is murdered and the ever more appalling acts of butchery give the play its emotional sparks, also bringing McArdle’s Macbeth blazing to life.

For a while, it all looks and feels like a moving painting, exquisitely choreographed in its motion, beautiful in its eeriness and orchestrations of light and shade, but slightly devoid of feeling. There is no terror in the witches, either: Diane Fletcher, Maureen Hibbert and Valerie Lilley appear stately and benign with their silver hair and grave incantations – more like an all-seeing, ever-present and wise Greek chorus than a supernatural trio of weird sisters. She wilts with guilt into low-key sadness and never quite becomes a centripetal force in the play, or the true “partner of greatness” to Macbeth.
