Macbeth Act 2 Scene 3 The Porter and focus on verse/prose

A superb resource created by a GCSE examiner with a range of exercises for students to fully dissect stagecraft and Shakespeare’s structural choices.

A fun, performative lesson! I teach this in my own classroom and it’s a massive hit with students.

This resource includes:

• A main powerpoint including prompts for students own staging.
• Examination of the practical as well as creative function of the Porter.
• Exploration of the concept of additional playwrights adding to Shakespeare’s work.
• Detailed analysis of the structural and linguistic choices of Shakespeare.
• Exploration of the metaphors and imagery of Shakespeare used to impact an audience.
