The Romeo & Julia Kören ensemble from Sweden is going to bring William Shakespeare's tragedy, Macbeth, to Beijing on June 13 and 14, with two shows at Tianqiao Performing Arts Center.

Adapted and directed by Benoît Malmberg and composed by Clément Janequin and Joaquin des Prez, the 70-minute performance combines a selection of musical pieces and fragmented dialogues.

Romeo & Julia Kören's Macbeth premiered in 1997 and has since been performed at Shakespeare festivals in Germany, Poland, Lithuania and Denmark.

The Romeo & Julia Kören ensemble was formed in 1991 and performs a mix of singing, dance and theatre. It has toured more than 35 countries including China, the United States, Russia and Germany.
