In Threes They Come,
By R. Bagula "Roger L. Bagula" (Lakeside, Ca United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Macbeth (Shakespeare, Pelican) (Paperback)
I first read this play in high school but have never seen it played. It has lost none of the bite it takes from you by time. After reading Cymbeline which takes place in even earlier times, one grows to appreciate the beauty of the poetry and the craft of the writing in this master work. I think that Shakespeare must have changed much in his productions at the actors requests, so that one part has more speaking length than another even when it doesn't seem to do the play any real good, but I think it is the witches and the ghost who steal the show in Macbeth. What chance have mere mortals when spirits compete?
