Macbeth

            
             The specific details that made the play enjoyable started from the opening music until the last scene of the play. The play was done in the near future to make it more interesting while using today's hard rock music. The opening scene where it shows soldiers fighting on the front lines was done very well. During one point in the opening scene they had the strobe lights flickering on and off while the soldiers were fighting to give a slow motion effect. I thought they put that together very well even for a play production. Another scene that was enjoyable was when Macbeth kept having visions of the guard he had murdered. Macbeth had his council with him at the dinner table when the ghost would appear through the shudders (wall) and disappears back through them. The last sequences of scenes that I thought was enjoyable were the three witches. I thought they played the part very well. They were supposed to be evil and trashy and cause problems for Macbeth. In the opening scene when they circle around Macbeth and predict him to be king, I enjoyed seeing how they were going to play the witches in that scene. They did a very good job with their facial expressions, body movements, and language because I believe that's one of the hardest roles to play in Macbeth. .
             I believe these scenes worked because they tried to go with a different approach to it with the play being in the future and hard rock music of today. The scenes were done with a lot of emotion and made it seem as if I were watching a movie. The scenes worked basically because of the date the play. Its set in the near future so all options are open on how to perform the play. The characters can dress in anything close to toady's style and weaponry could be done however they wanted as well.
             Lady Macbeth's conflicts in the play start at the scene when she agrees with her husband that he should kill the king while asleep in his chambers at their castle.
