Already confirmed for the production is Ginger Johnson (Drag Race UK Season 5 and 2025 Celebrity MasterChef winner) as Macbeth, Kyran Thrax (Drag Race UK Season 6 winner) as Lady Macbeth, Yshee Black (JOY, Sleeping Beauty, Peter Pan, Late Night Lycett), Cyro (Moonin 80: Everybody is Welcome, Southbank Centre) and Daniel Jacobs (Vinegar Strokes) (Death Drop, West End & UK Tour) as The Three Witches, Anna Phylactic (Peter Pan, West End) as Banquo, Richard Energy (Antifa Cabaret: Slut it Down) as King Duncan and Victoria Scone (Alice in Wonderland; UK Tour) as Macduff.

Further cast and full creative team to be announced.

Set in the shadows of Soho's backrooms and battered gay bars, Category Is: Macbeth reimagines Shakespeare's bloodiest tragedies in a city where being gay is an act of rebellion, and drag is a form of survival. Using the original text of the play, this all-new Macbeth will also contain an 80s atmosphere.

Category Is: Macbeth runs at the Emerald Theatre from 24 April - 28 May 2026.
