Glasgow Kelvin College presents A William Shakespeare Double Bill: Taming of the Shrew and Macbeth.

Experience two Shakespeare classics in one evening as Glasgow Kelvin College's Performing Arts students take to the stage at East Kilbride Arts Centre.

This exciting double bill brings together two contrasting works from one of the world's most celebrated playwrights.

The Taming of the Shrew explores love, relationships and the battle of wills through Shakespeare's sharp humour and lively characters.

Macbeth takes audiences into a darker world of ambition, betrayal and the consequences of pursuing power at any cost.

From comedy to tragedy, the performances offer audiences the chance to enjoy two very different Shakespearean stories while showcasing the acting and performance skills of our talented students.

With her extensive background in psychology and crime analysis, Emma Kenny offers a rare and credible window into how murderers justify the horrific acts they commit.
