The performing arts presentation I decide to go to was Macbeth. William Shakespeare originally did Macbeth in the 1500. The play is about about how a young man tries to gain power and tries to kill the king. After that is done Macbeth, who is the main character gets paranoid. Macbeth by AACC was a interesting production.
The Macbeth that Anne Arundel Community College was an interesting production. The exposition starts when meeting the characters, which are Macbeth and Lady Macbeth.

Denouement begins when Lady Macbeth kills herself and Macduff kills Macbeth.
