About Repercussion

"All Hail Macbeth" Cries of victory sound.  Duncan, King of Scotland, anxiously awaits news of the war from Hecate (a sergeant from England), Ross (a Thane) and Malcome (Duncan's son).  Close by, two witches rehearse their roles in Hecate's secret plan to destroy Macbeth (Thane of Glamis).  The war is over.  Macbeth has triumphed, Scotland has won.  Returning to camp, Macbeth and Banquo (his best friend) encounter Hecate and the witches, who prophesied that Banquo's sons will be kings and Macbeth shall be Thane of Cawdor and afterwards King.  Ross arrives with a message from Duncan.  Macbeth has been named Thane of Cawdor and he sens a letter announcing this to his wife.  He then arrives at Duncan's camp to hear that Malcome is names heir to the throne.  Everyone is invited to spend the night at Macbeth's castle!  Meanwhile, Lady Macbeth has called on evil spirits to help kill Duncan and make Macbeth king.  That night, Macbeth murders Duncan.  MacDuff (Thane of Fife) finds the king's body; Malcolme fees to England.  Macbeth is named King and immediately plans the murder of Banquo and his son, Fleance.  Banquo is killed and Fleance escapes and Banquo's ghost returns to haunt Macbeth who is now planning the murder of MacDuff.  MacDuff flees to England, but his castle is attacked and his wife and children killed.  MacDuff, Ross, Hecate and Malcolme make plans to return to Scotland, fight Macbeth and return Malcolme to his rightful place on the throne.  As Macbeth prepares for war, Lady Macbeth, plagued by nightmares, commits suicide.  Macbeth and MacDuff battle.  MacDuff is victorius - the Tyrant is dead!  Malcolme is named King and Hecate his Queen.  All is well, or, is it?  Fair is foul and foul is fair...
