"Shakespeare has given us a short, sharp, riveting play about a splendid
man's total destruction, a fate brought about by his becoming addicted to evil. Could anything be more timely? And to get
us ready for such excitement, the playwright brings us all to attention by a crack of thunder, a bolt of lightning, and a
brief exchange between three witches telling us that Macbeth is their target. Why Macbeth? Because he is the brightest and
the best. The one with the most to lose.... 'Brave', 'valiant', 'noble', 'worthy' Macbeth. The king loves him, the soldiers
admire and respect him, he has close good friends and an adoring wife. His castle even has a pleasant seat. And he has a crucial
element for evil: a human flaw, In his case, vaulting ambition."
