The Scottish Play

It's called 'The Scottish Play' because many actors feel it is bad luck to say the name, "Macbeth".  Macbeth is a great play to study in Y10 because of the following reasons: it has a good film (the Polanksi version); it's  fairly easy to follow; it's about betrayal, witchcraft, ambition, murder - all the good stuff; it's Will Shakespeare!

Here's the full text.  I don't expect anyone to read it all but it might be handy for searching out the odd line.
