In which century was the play 'Macbeth' first performed?
We are not sure where Macbeth was first performed. Because of the large number of night scenes, some scholars have thought that it was suitable for the Blackfriars Theatre where plays were performed by candlelight. However, the King's Men were not allowed to use the Blackfriars until 1609 and Macbeth was probably written shortly after the Gunpowder Plot, say, in 1606. It may have premiered at court or just as easily may have been performed at the Globe.
When was 'Macbeth' first performed?
In Shakespeare's era the demand for new entertainment was huge, so the play would have been performed immediately following it's completion. With Macbeth this was particularly true, since King James I was extremely interested in sorcery and witchcraft, having written his own book Daemonologie (Demonology) -- Macbeth's success was assured. Shakespeare never published any of his plays, but 18 unauthorised versions of his plays were published during his lifetime (there were no copyright laws in those days). Macbeth was first performed in 1605 and was a huge success.
