About the play: When three sinister witches tell
Macbeth that power and glory could be within his grasp, he murders
the king in a bid to ensure his future. But he soon sees the
error of his ways, for if you kill once, you will kill again -
and the dead will return to haunt you for your sins. War, power,
witchcraft, deadly deeds, relationships and risks are themes that
run through this enduring play.
