Macbeth

Macbeth was a play written by famed Earth playwright, William Shakespeare, and became one his best known works.

Macbeth is a tragedy, which features the lead character of the same name, who is a nobleman of Scotland. In the play, Macbeth acts on the prophecies of three witches (and the spurring of his wife, Lady Macbeth) by killing King Duncan and ascends to the throne of Scotland. His eventual downfall and destruction comes after the guilt drives him into madness and despair. Like most of Shakespeare's works, Macbeth was still performed in the 23rd and 24th centuries.

A version of Macbeth was created by the Arcturians in 2266. With the sponsorship of the Galactic Cultural Exchange Project, this rendition was performed by the Karidian Company of Players on several planets, including Planet Q.
