Macbeth Script - Abridged 1hour

An abridged script of Shakespeare’s Macbeth for a 1 hour student performance.
Excellent for supporting study of Macbeth for GCSE English.
Maintains Shakespeare’s original language, rhythm/meter and all key scenes and characters.
Pages, scenes and lines numbered for ease of reference and rehearsal.

I directed a cast of students all the way from year 7-13 (ages 11-18), with SEN and MAGT/GAMA, performing this in one hour, including movement/dance sequencesfor ensemble and it was very successful and well received by students, parents, staff and governors. The students involved really enjoyed themselves and rose to the challenge of Shakespeare’s language.
If you’re thinking “my students couldn’t handle the language” - They can and will!
