Death of a King and other great art exhibitions to see this week

The latest exhibition at Perth Museum explores the iconic Shakespearean play that has captivated audiences for centuries, alongside the story of the real King Macbeth who reigned in Scotland 900 years ago. Visitors are taken on an immersive journey through historical record and theatrical fantasy and are able to get up close and personal with treasures such as Shakespeare’s first folio - where the tragedy was first printed - as well as a medieval sword from the era of the real King Macbeth which has never been on display before.
