The death bed of Lady MacBeth and her unfortunate husband will be on display in Project Arts Centre Cube.

This four post canopy bed has been transformed into a private cinema where one to two people can experience a unique work for music and film chronicling the cruel love and death of the late King and Queen.

Placing a euro coin into the slot, climb into bed to witness one of five scenes in a projection on the screen above, words and music coming from the darkness around and vibrations from the mattress beneath.

Audience members are asked to wait their turn, as the installation can only accommodate two at a time. Single viewers are also most welcome.

Full DVDs of the film will be for sale at reception.
