Crossword Genius

Strongly dislike appearing in Macbeth at Edinburgh (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hate

'strongly dislike' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in macbeth at edinburgh' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'HATE' can be found hidden inside 'macbeth at edinburgh'.

'appearing' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for hate that I've seen before include "Fury" , "Intense dislike" , "Thoroughly dislike, loathe" , "Passion" , "Odium" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
