( )Although I'm an English teacher, I have to admit that Macbeth is not one of my personal favorites. Does that mean that the play isn't brilliant? Absolutely not. Shakespeare, once again, exhibits the full range of characteristics and emotions that a human can display. Great play about the way a seemingly good man, can descend into the madness of becoming greedy and a murderer. Similar Cover Orange Although Shakespeare can be quite difficult to comprehend due to the language (Early Modern English), this play is short enough that most high school students will be encouraged to read soley based on its length (96 pages). The format of a play also adds to comprehension, as students can rely on stage directions for additional clues to the plot. Witches, murder, and betrayal are all exciting elements that contribute to a very readable and classic play. Classic tragedy. no reviews | add a review
