To put on a performance during this time of mourning, particularly a play about regicide and witchcraft, gave the Drama department pause for thought. However, the origins of Macbeth are to flatter. Shakespeare wrote Macbeth to find favour with the new King of England, James 1, who had just published a book on witchcraft entitled Daemonologie.
Macbeth is one of Shakespeare’s most well known and often performed texts. Its popularity is echoed on the English Curriculum, proving its education value to all at Tanglin and around the world. King Charles III too was an admirer of the play, performing the titular role himself whilst at school in 1965.
This evening's cast have had the performance cancelled once already and decided to work exceptionally hard over just twelve days to get it back on stage.
We hope you enjoy tonight’s performance.
