2017 CCLA / GCTC Lawyer Play: Book Your Audition!

2017 LAWYER PLAY AUDITIONS

A brave Scottish general named Macbeth receives a prophecy from a trio of witches that one day he will become the King of Scotland. Driven by ambition and spurred to action by his wife, Macbeth murders King Duncan and takes the Scottish throne for himself. Consumed with guilt and paranoia, he commits more and more murders to protect himself from enmity and suspicion, and soon becomes a tyrannical ruler.
