🗡️ Shakespeare's Macbeth - Modern EASY English Version
Details
🗡️ Macbeth - ambition, prophecy, guilt
Something wicked this way comes... to Vancouver!
This month, we are diving into Shakespeare’s shortest, bloodiest, and fastest-moving tragedy: Macbeth. Whether you’re a die-hard Shakespeare fan or you haven't read this since high school English class, come join us for a relaxed evening of discussion.
What we’ll discuss:
- Are the Witches actually controlling fate, or is Macbeth just easily manipulated?
- Lady Macbeth: Ultimate villain or tragic figure?
- The "Curse" of the Scottish Play.
- Our favorite movie adaptations (Denzel? Fassbender? Patrick Stewart?).
Why this one
Two people chase power, then power chases them. We’ll look at ambition, prophecy as a self‑fulfilling KPI, partner pressure, and the PR problem of guilt.
