My Experience Reading Macbeth

My Experience Reading Macbeth

Many of my English teachers have told me about how great Macbeth was, but we never seemed to get to it. Part of the reason for this was, it was in the grade 12 curriculum but the teachers never stopped raving about this play. When I first read it I could see why, the play is very interesting and is probably the best play I have read, I am not usually one to like many plays for I find it hard to understand the language and to me many are boring for lack of action. I know there are many amazing plays that don't include action like a battle but for some reason I always expect it which is why I didn't enjoy plays like Romeo and Juliet as much. The balance of action and plot was perfect in my opinion as I was captivated by what was happening in the play at all times. The three witches with their predictions of characters fate always got me thinking about the words and how what seemed to be impossible would come to be. Overall my experience reading Macbeth was terrific and really connected with me which could be a start in me taking more interest in plays.
