Macbeth Trip

Macbeth Trip Summary:

On Tuesday, September 19th students from Year 10 and Year 11 went to see a live production of Macbeth at The Globe Theatre. The production was a sell out event with students from different schools and tourists coming to see a modern telling of the famous Tragedy of Macbeth. The students were treated with an ensemble cast which has been recently praised for the depiction of the tragedy for a modern audience and this would act as the perfect method of revision for the text as the Globe is the best way to experience Macbeth. The performance was also quite interactive with students close up to the action, where characters entered exited through the crowd, bringing the students the same experience that Jacobeans would have had watching the play in the original productions.
