Incorrect Macbeth

This is extremely niche. My apologies.

Macbeth: We have to do something about Duncan… but what?

Lady Macbeth: Kill him.

Macbeth: That’s not who we are.

Lady Macbeth: Then why did you even ask?

Seyton: If I was a boss, I would treat my goons right. They would know love. “You got it, boss” would be met with “Stay safe out there, boys! You’re my pride and joy”.

Macbeth: …

I wanna see someone take the "no man of woman born" thing on the actual meaning of man there, aka short for human, and just like. A fuckin dog runs on and mauls Macbeth while "from mine mothers womb untimely ripped" dude watches-

This is not as hot of a take as I think it is, but I truly believe that in order for Lady Macbeth to be effective, you have to play her as cold, manipulative, and bloodthirsty but ALSO make her charming.

I need her to be conniving, I have to believe that she is welcoming and excited to see Duncan and truly blessed to host him (lie). I need her to be THE BEST party host possible at the banquet, until things get messed up. I want her earnestly distraught when she hears the king has been murdered (another lie). I want the other characters to LIKE her.

I think there’s power in playing her as robotic and cold, I get where the appeal is. I think the play is so much more interesting if you lean into her manipulation though.

(And don’t get me started on her relationship with Macbeth)

Macbeth: Do you like… have any family?

Young Siward: Family?

Young Siward, gesturing to MacDuff’s army: These guys are my family :)

Macbeth, cocking gun: Great, so you don’t.

Ross: So apparently, when Macduff said “fuck Macbeth” he did NOT actually mean “have sexual intercourse with Macbeth the man who murdered my family”.

Lennox: The more you know!

Lady MacDuff: So what do you like about Macbeth if it’s not his looks?

Lady Mac: Idk I like his personality?

Lady MacDuff: Really???

Lady Mac:

Lady Mac: Yeah no it’s not that either

[incorrectmacbeth]

Fleance: Macbeth! Could you teach me how to use a sword?

Macbeth: Did you ask Banquo?

Fleance: Yes.

Macbeth: And what did he say?

Fleance: No.

Macbeth: So why are you asking me?

Fleance: Because he’s not the boss of you!

Macbeth, in his head: [this is a trap this is a trap this is a trap]

[incorrectmacbeth]

Macbeth: Think about this, Banquo. I’m you’re hottest friend!

Banquo: No that’s Mac—

Macbeth: I’m you’re smartest friend!

Banquo: Actually Lennox—

Macbeth: I’m you’re nicest friend!

Banquo: Well Ross—

Macbeth: I’m you’re friend!

Macbeth: Well, first of all, your feelings are valid.

Macduff: OF COURSE MY FEELINGS ARE FUCKING VALID??

[incorrectmacbeth]

Macbeth and Lady Macbeth grumbling in the distance:

Banquo: What’s wrong with you two?

Lady Macbeth: Macbeth and I agreed we’d never go to bed angry at each other.

Macbeth: We’ve been awake since Friday.

Lady Macbeth: WELL IF SOMEONE WOULD JUST ADMIT THEY’RE WRONG AND APOLOGIZE—

[incorrectmacbeth]

Malcolm: This dumb therapist just said I have “unresolved daddy issues”.

Malcolm: First of all, my dad is dead, so you look really stupid right now.
