macbeth
Storyboard Text
- I will, Madam.
- Tell the king I'd like to speak to him when he has a moment.
- We have nothing and gave everything. We got everything we wanted without getting any happier. We'd be better off like our victims, rather than living in anxiety while killing everyone.
- Better to be dead, like those we killed for our own peace of mind, than to live endlessly tortured by anxiety.
- What is it, my lord? Why are you keeping to yourself with only your sad thoughts for company? Those sad thoughts should have died along with the person you're thinking about. What's done is done.
- The servant enters the scene escorting Lady Macbeth. She informs him to tell the king she wishes to talk to him.
- I will, my love, and I hope that you will too. Make sure to pay special attention to Banquo.
- Come on my dear lord, soften your severe expression. Be bright and joyful with your guests tonight.
- For the first time, Lady Macbeth feels guilty for her act of treason. She envies her victim because he is no longer able to experience emotions like anxiety, such as Lady Macbeth does.
- Oh my dear wife, my mind feels like it’s full of scorpions! You know that Banquo and his son Fleance are still alive.
- But they aren’t going to live forever.
- Macbeth enters the room with a very troubled conscience. Just as his wife, he too feels remorse for his crime. He is tormented with worry of the truth being surfaced.
- That’s a comforting thought, that they are vulnerable. So let’s be cheerful. Before the bats have flown and before the beetle has rung the bell for the goddess of night, a terrible crime will be committed.
- Stay in the dark about all this until you can celebrate what’s already happened, my darling.
- What will be done?
- Lady Macbeth consoles her husband whilst reminding him of tonight's guests. Macbeth Advises his wife to make Banquo feel important. He reminds her to mask her true ill intent.
- Lady Macbeth hints that Banquo and Fleance cannot live forever. Macbeth is comforted by this thought. He tells his wife that Banquo and his son will be no longer before nightfall.
- Macbeth says to his wife that it is better if she does not know his plan until it is done. He is certain that killing Banquo will help ease his worrisome mind. He then exits the scene with Lady macbeth.
