I can explain the artistic choices in performances of Macbeth

What do you remember about the plot after the break?

Who is the king of Scotland at the start of the play Macbeth?

1. Duncan
2. Cawdor
3. Macduff
4. Malcolm

What is Lady Macbeth's plan for murdering Duncan?

1. Macbeth will pour poison in his ear while he sleeps and blame the King's brother.
2. Macbeth will stab him in his sleep and plant the bloody evidence on the servants.
3. Macbeth will hire three murderers to ambush Duncan when he returns to the castle on horseback.
4. Macbeth will push him out the window during a tour of the castle.

Why is Macbeth and not Malcolm named king?

1. Duncan changed his will and disowned Malcolm
2. You can't become king if you're gone
3. Macbeth just claimed the throne
4. Malcolm looks guilty after fleeing so the others in court don't trust him anymore

How does Macbeth feel about Fleance (Banquo's son) getting away unharmed?

1. It's not a big deal to him
2. It's okay because now he can blame Banquo's death on Fleance
3. He feels like Fleance's escape makes him extra vulnerable
4. It confirms his suspicion that the witches are lying to him

How does Lady Macbeth explain her husband's insane behaviour at the banquet?

1. She says he's sleepwalking
2. She says he is just tired from trying to save Banquo from 3 murderers
3. She says he was poisoned
4. She says it's okay because Macbeth has had weird visions since childhood
