We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Late to the WS discussion. I saw what may have been the alltime worst version of Macbeth ever made. As treat my entire high school class got some sort of subsidy to see friggin CHeston play Macbeth.
The conceit was that the witches were not phsical entities, but spirits - so when M first meets them they are possessing the bodies of three dead soldiers, and attract CH's attention by grabbing his ankle. His reaction, as conveyed by face and body language was "Hmm. A dead body is grabbing my ankle. This is an unusual phenomena. I wonder if it is in anyway important." Actually, now that I think of it, it may have been the funniest MacBeth ever made.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Lady MacBeth would be played by one of the boys in drag, of course.

Absolutely. Cleese has the darkness, but he's too blunt to be scheming and wiley. He'd be better as MacBeth. Maybe Palin as the Mrs.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

And because I have an odd sense of humor, I'd want Crow to pop up every once in a while and break the fourth wall to shout "McLeod!," like from the MST3K of "Pod People," as an ironic commentary on all the "Mac" names.

And maybe Seton trotting along after the Thane, occasionally interpolating rude finger gestures....

The status is NOT quo.
Actually, the worst version of a WS play I've ever seen was of Macbeth also, in a local Shakespeare-in-the-park. The acting was terrible, but when the invading soldiers came onto the strobe-lit stage via zipline from some trees, it made us all laugh so hard that it was almost worth it.
