MACBETH ACT I

THE SETTING SCOTLAND 1100 A.D. SCOTLAND IS DIVIDED INTO SECTIONS OF LAND

Characters Duncan is the king EACH SECTION “OWNED” BY A THANE Map of Macbeth's Scotland

Characters…cont. Characters are called “Thane of Glamis” or “Glamis” as well as their names (Macbeth) Banquo (Macbeth’s friend) Ross and Angus (just guys) Malcolm and Donalbain (sons of Duncan – princes) WITCHES!

The PLOT Act I, Scene i Witches! Plan to meet with Macbeth Act I, Scene ii Battlefield Soldier tells of the battle Macbeth was brave! Cawdor was a traitor! King decides to have Cawdor executed and give “Thane of Cawdor” to Macbeth

The PLOT Before Macbeth gets word of his new title… Act I, Scene iii MEETS THE WITCHES! Prophecies for Macbeth Thane of Glamis! Thane of Cawdor! King hereafter! Prophecies for Banquo Lesser than Macbeth and greater Not so happy, yet much happier Shall beget kings, though not be king

The PLOT – cont. Witches vanish! Banquo and Macbeth laugh it off King’s men announce: Macbeth is the new Thane of Cawdor! Macbeth starts to think he might also become king!

Act I, Scene iv Scene iv opens at Forres, King Duncan’s castle. Duncan and Malcolm discuss the execution of the Thane of Cawdor. Macbeth and Banquo enter Duncan tells Macbeth he has plans for him! Duncan announces that Malcolm (Prince of Cumberland) will be next in line to be king Duncan says he will now visit Macbeth at Inverness

Act I, Scene v Scene v opens at Inverness, Macbeth’s castle Lady Macbeth reads a letter from Macbeth

Lady Macbeth reads the letter: It tells of the witches! Lady thinks: Macbeth is Glamis! Macbeth is Cawdor! He’s going to be KING! But I’m afraid he is not MAN enough to make it happen! Lady decides she will persuade Macbeth to take action!

A messenger arrives! And says “The king will stay here tonight” Lady Macbeth can hardly believe her ears! She then delivers a soliloquy Come, Spirits! Take away my womanliness Fill me with cruelty! Come, Thick Night! Cover my dark deeds! Don’t let the heavens see what we are about to do!

Enters Macbeth! Lady Macbeth greets him by calling him: Glamis! Cawdor! King hereafter! They talk of Duncan’s plans to spend the night. Lady says “Let’s kill him!” “Look innocent!” “Leave it all to me!”

Act I, Scene vi: Front of Macbeth’s Castle King Duncan (and others) arrive Lady greets him Macbeth is not around…(off feeling guilty)

Act I, Scene vii: A room in Macbeth’s castle Macbeth’s soliloquy I wish we could get this over with quickly! But what if one bad deed (killing Duncan) leads to more? Duncan is my guest and my king! I mustn’t do this! I don’t have the guts to do this! Only “vaulting ambition”

Lady Macbeth comes in and says: Where have you BEEN!? Macbeth says he doesn’t want to go through with the plan: I’ve just been honored! Lady taunts him: You have the desire to be king but no guts to make it happen! You are not a REAL MAN!

Macbeth defends himself! I am too a man! Lady: But you would be MORE the man if you killed Duncan! You are “killing” this “baby” (killing the plan before it grows to result) Macbeth: But what if we FAIL?

Lady lays out the murder plan: When King Duncan is asleep I’ll get the guards drunk Then you can sneak in and kill Duncan! Then we’ll blame the killing on the guards! Macbeth says: You should only have sons, never daughters Because you are made of such nasty, tough stuff! All right; let’s do it.
