The acting couple performed William Shakespeare’s play at the Donmar Warehouse earlier this year before moving to the city.
The adaptation is directed by Donmar associate director Max Webster, also known for Life Of Pi and Henry V.
Cush previously starred in Hamlet at the Young Vic a few years ago, after what former New York Times theater critic Ben Brantley described her as radiating “that unquantifiable force of hunger, drive and talent generally called star power.”
In a somber and dramatic animation, David and Cush wowed the crowd with a sensational performance, as the show will continue throughout the winter season.
Among the famous faces attending the press night were Fearne Cotton, Michael Sheen and Poppy Delevingne.

Speaking about his role in Macbeth last year, David told The Guardian: “I thought I knew this play very well and that, unlike any other Shakespeare I remember rehearsing, it was simple.
‘But every time I get to a scene, it goes in a direction I didn’t expect. It has so much strength that it moves forward. Plot-wise, it’s more innovative than any Shakespeare play he’s ever done.
Cush added: ‘She is deeply embedded in our culture. Everyone thinks they know who she is. Most people studied the play in school. I did it, I hated it. It was very boring, but that’s because Shakespeare’s plays are not meant to be read, but to be performed.
“People think they know Lady Macbeth as a guy: the strong, controlling woman who made him do it. She does things that women shouldn’t do. The biggest mistake is believing that we’ve stopped seeing Lady Macbeth as a human being. .’
