By William Shakespeare

Macbeth is one of William Shakespeare’s most powerful and popular tragedies, exploring the destructive power of ambition, guilt, and the supernatural. Set in Scotland, the play follows the rise and fall of Macbeth, a valiant warrior who, spurred by a prophecy from three witches and the manipulations of his wife, Lady Macbeth, murders King Duncan to seize the throne. As Macbeth ascends to power, his reign is marked by paranoia, madness, and further bloodshed, ultimately leading to his tragic downfall.
