On a bleak Scottish moorland, a whispered prophecy incites an unstoppable chain of events. Three witches rouse the dormant ambition of a brave and gallant soldier, Macbeth; the Thane of Glamis. His wife, Lady Macbeth, lusts after the title of queen. Together, the unstoppable duo plot to murder the King by any means necessary. But as Lady Macbeth's guilt catches up with her, her husband's single crime becomes a cascading expedition into unrelenting tyranny. Morality is put under the microscope in William Shakespeare's brilliant examination of human temptation, ambition, and guilt. Macbeth is one of the greatest tragedies ever written and provokes debate and stimulates discussion.
