No dramatist has ever seen with more frightening clarity into the heart and mind
of a murderer than has Shakespeare in this compelling tragedy of evil. Taunted
into asserting his "masculinity" by his ambitious wife, Macbeth chooses to
embrace the Weird Sisters' prophecy and kill his king-and thus, seals his own
doom. Fast-moving and bloody, this drama has the extraordinary energy that
derives from a brilliant plot replete with treachery and murder, and from
Shakespeare's compelling portrait of the ultimate battle between a mind and its
own guilt.
