Macbeth
Questions
-
Duncan was apparently a very kind king. We saw him speak very politely. However, he was in the middle of a civil war at the start of the play and he and his son didn't fight in any of the battles. What are the traits of a good king, and does Duncan have many of them?
-
Leadership, when to and not go to war
-
Macbeth
-
30-40, Looks physically threatening while still looking smart. Needs to be present as stoic, angry and crazy and switch between them.
-
-
Banquo
While as similar in strength to Macbeth, the audience needs to find him more charming and funnier.
Malcolm
17-25. Needs to appear younger and weaker than the other men cast. Not an evil character, but not a strong one either.
Lady Macbeth
30-40, Needs to present as both pretty, but sinister. Intelligent, calm, cunning.

Think about elements of each character are essential, and think about which could be changed. Do the witches need to be women? Does the story need to revolve around generals, or could the war be replaced with a different kind of violence/conflict? Does Malcolm need to be a man? does he need to be non-violent? Can some of these characters be cut or consolidated?
