Macbeth Summary

Macbeth: Staged: the origins of YAs greatest tropes by William Shakespeare

With a foreword by Kat Delacorte, author of With Fire in Their Blood


It will have blood, they say: blood will have blood

On a bleak, stormy night in Scotland, three witches prophesy: Macbeth will be a lord twice-over and Macbeth will be king; but Banquos sons will also be kings.

When the witches predictions start to come true, the ambitious Lady Macbeth vows to help her husband become King of Scotland and hold on to the throne by any means necessary. But as the pursuit of power leads them down a dark and bloody path, the Macbeths soon begin to unravel.

Macbeth is Shakespeares famously blood-soaked tale of greed and prophecy so powerful that superstitions about the curse of The Scottish Play continue to this day.

Discover STAGED, a limited collection of Shakespeares unabridged plays that celebrates the genius of the Bard and the tropes that continue to delight YA readers to this day.

About William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare was born to John Shakespeare and Mary Arden in late April 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. He wrote about 38 plays (the precise number is uncertain), many of which are regarded as the most exceptional works of drama ever produced, including Romeo and Juliet (1595), Henry V (1599), Hamlet (1601), Othello (1604), King Lear (1606) and Macbeth (1606), as well as a collection of 154 sonnets, which number among the most profound and influential love poetry in English. Shakespeare died in Stratford in 1616.
