Set in Australia, it concerns Terry Shakespeare, a 42-year-old man who has been a student at the fictional Dunsinane Boys School for 36 years, deliberately failing rather than facing the outside world.

After a season at The Kirk Gallery in Sydney from July 1979, Boy's Own McBeth opened in a bigger production at the Paris Theatre in November 1979. It toured widely across Australia for two years.[1]

A cast recording was released in 1979.[2]

The production also played at the Westwood Playhouse in Los Angeles.[3]
