The Tragedy of Macbeth was to Elizabethan England what the daily soap operas are to television today. The story of ambition, murder, and madness still resonates deeply within the psyche of man. A tale of the fight to win control of the Scottish crown, Macbeth plays with themes of ambition, guilt, and the basic elements of evil entwined mischievously by the playwright, William Shakespeare.
It begins with a military victory led by generals Macbeth and Banquo. Going home from the battle they cross paths with witches who fatefully tell Macbeth he will rise to great power and will never be killed, save by a man not born by women. “Macbeth, Macbeth, beware McDuff,†they tell him.
As the prophesy toys with his ego and insatiable drive for power, Lady Macbeth goads him into killing King Duncan, whose sons, Malcolm and Donalbain, are next in line for the throne.
After Macbeth ascends to the throne, guilt interferes with the enjoyment of their newfound power.Macbeth now has to deal with the natural turmoil of running a country as well as trying to juggle his wife’s ensuing madness. Her guilt is an all consuming presence that eventually leads to her death.
Lovingly recreated as an mp3 audio this cd contains the timeless story of Wuthering Heights again and again
Ideal for children, teachers, students, the whole family and even the young at heart.
