MacBeth Festival

I have always said that I like the classes where we do morew than only read and write, those where we get to use our creativity to learn. I think that having a MacBeth festival where we acted out the most importnat scenes of the play was a great way to do this. I really appriciated the opportunity to do something different and to apply what we had learned about composition to our plays. I only got to act and could not see any of the other plays, but still I imagine that it was very interesting to see how each group interpretated their characters. It was very nice to see that some people saw Lady MacBeth as an evil, power thirsty person while others saw her as a loving wife who felt remorse for what she was doing. I hope that we get to do more activities such as these and that as we have been doing through the year we make posters, presentation, etc. to keep the class interesting. I did not see the scenes as i mentiones before, but I am sure that they were all very good because people had been focusing on practicing the play and learning the lines to make it a good scene.
