His next trial was what he was going to about his suspicious best friend Banquo. To keep his reputation safe Macbeth decides to kill Banquo. Doing this raised a lot of suspicion and created a lot of enemies. Because Macbeth keeps killing people to keep himself on the throne all the lords start to hate him and want his tyranny to end. Macduff is one of those lords and he went to England to speak with Duncan’s oldest son about getting army together
He leaves Corinth and travels to Thebes, and on the way he unknowingly kills his father during a quarrel. After saving Thebes from the Sphinx, he is given the hand of Queen Jocasta, his mother, for marriage and he becomes the new king of Thebes. One of the many reasons Oedipus is a coward is that he didn’t want to face his parent s again. His thought at the moment when he blinds himself is that if he killed himself he will see his real parents in the underworld, who he had committed those crimes against. Instead of repenting for his sins he escapes them.
Some of book explained conflict as a part of plot and some book explained it separately. That means that the two elements have a relation and its connection is very important to build a story because plots grow out of a conflict. B. Theoretical Concept Before analyzing the element of the short story, we must know about the theoretical concept about the element of short story, especially plot and conflict. Plot is the most important thing in the story because a good plot will make a good story.
Although this musical rarely breaks the fourth wall we will incorporate this into our version to add more non naturalistic features and make our performance unique. The other elements of kneehigh such as song, dance and the asides do engage the audience in a sense that they will be clinging onto the characters dialogue and song. Another feature of kneehigh used would be multi rolling as all of the members of the group will be taking on more than one role e.g. the person playing the tin man is also playing Aunt Em and the person playing the Wicked Witch is playing the Great and Powerful
Max just became more of a dick, and the challenges in Susan and Andrews relationship added a lot of craziness to the show. It went from easy to manage and funny to very deep and stressful just after intermission. I feel like the second act could have had more humor to it, and that would have helped with the craziness of the second
Our group work together well to produce a coherent style and are not afraid to experiment, take chances and eventually change or reject ideas which is an important factor in performing Kneehigh Theatre. In our group there are 5 girls and 1 boy which means we have to multirole in our play. This means that we have to be collaborative which is also another important factor of Kneehigh Theatre. Another reason why we chose Kneehigh Theatre is because when we researched Kneehigh we were instantly drawn to the wacky makeup and costume design. We thought this fitted perfectly with the script as it is very eerie and dark and Kneehigh even inspired us to use masks.
Now in the play, Macbeth starts off as a loyal, courageous, stereotypical, drone like war hero but once a group of witches put this idea in his mind that he could become king, he starts spiraling downhill. For days he pondered whether to let nature take its course and let fate decide, or intervene and take matters into his own hands. He kills the King, takes the throne, but becomes paranoid and belligerent. Soon after this change, a rebellion forms who goes after him and kills him. William Shakespeare’s Macbeth showcases how one’s desires can change him, bring out the true primal instincts in a man; and as the play progresses, this change becomes quite evident.
Richard III laughs as he ruses Lady Anne into believing that he killed her husband and father because of her beauty. “Was ever woman in this humor wooed?” Richard when he’s alone, he mocks her because she fell for his hoax. Richard was actually a very smart man and very deceiving at the same time. The beginning of act 1 starts with this heartfelt speech of Richard speaking of how he feels about his brothers and how he will reach the top. Richard is bitter, deformed, not loved, and sickened by peace, so he will set his brothers up for their death and rise up.
As the play goes on, Macbeth begins to care less and less about who he kills and just starts killing all of the Thanes around him because he thinks that they are going to kill him. His life starts to fall apart and he goes to see the three witches for a second time. Macbeth even turns on his best friend, Banquo because he remembers the witches saying that Banquo’s children will someday hold the Scottish throne “Then prophet-like they hail’d him father to a line of Kings: Upon my head they placed a fruitless crown” (Macbeth Act 3 63-65). This proves that Macbeth no longer cares about the people who have been his friends and trusted allies for many years. All he now cares about is
This means Macbeth had no other reason for killing Duncan other than wanting to. At this point in the play, Macbeth’s desire for power begins to affect the way he acts and the choices he makes. Next in line for the throne after Duncan’s death would’ve been one of his sons, Malcolm, but he fled with his brother Donalbain after their father’s death. However, the witches prophesized that Banquo would produce a line of kings, so Macbeth hired a group of murderers to kill Banquo and his son, Fleance. Macbeth would not let anyone get
