An Underworld Journey into 'Sleep No More'

Raymond C. Gamboa

It is with innocence that a great evil is born Macbeth may have been strong when it came to defending his kingdom, he was even less so when it came to peer pressure. He was weak when it came to his wife whom often influenced his actions and when it came time to do the "dirty" work she would always be there for him so that she might direct him as to what to do next. 
In a struggle to continue to attain more and more power the once timid and loving Macbeth has become a power hungry King willing to continue his murderous ways so long as he remains in power. It is with this new found power that he becomes a tyrant and all those who had once stood by him soon begin to lose faith in their king and revolt so that the rightful heir might reclaim the throne. It is with the dagger shining upon his crown that the darkness of his soul is truly seen.



There have been many interpretations of the play Macbeth and with these many different plays have been performed. Shakespeare had left all his plays with little instructions so each production could have a twist of its own so that with each interpretation someone could add more to the context of the play here is a comical view on the Weird sisters
