Am leaning towards no ...

Tickets (which went on sale to the oublic yesterday) are pretty much all sold out anyway ...

For greedy Macbeth—well he deserves that name— obtaining fortune, with his brandished steel which smoked with bloody cheek, Like mammon's minion carved out his passage till he gouged the slave 

There are few japes within (porter scene aside), but the central theme is a previously well-liked and loyal servant going bad (driven by ambition, witches, wife, madness etc).

You can play him strong, weak, sane, mad, credulous, manipulative.

The sarky brittleness Tenant brought to Hamlet could make a very interesting MacBeth
