I’m gratified by the recent structure built for the arts. In the recent year the Lord Chamberlains men built the Globe Theater. It can seat about 3,000 people, the stage measures to be 27 by 43 feet. The theater regularly shows 10 different plays in an amount of two weeks. Many of my plays have been shown at the Globe Theater. The play I’ve been working on is a significant tragedy. On opening night when the black flag is shown, the audience will be staggered and stunned about the story they’re about to hear. My wife Anne is thrilled to see the piece I’ve been working on.
When I’m done with this particular piece, a play so tragic that when people hear the name Macbeth thoughts of glory and cruses will come to mind. Inspiration came to write

Broadway Musicals Through out the years Broadway has produced many wonderful musicals. Many of these musicals are based on comedy, or carry a highly comical tone. However, Broadway is probably most well-known for its more thought evoking, solemn musicals.

This written task is based upon the play Macbeth. Though readers identify the titular character of Willian Shakespeare’s Macbeth, another character stands out as a much greater protagonist. While Macbeth is driven towards madness and into committing atrocities as to fulfill his ambitions to the throne, Macduff lacks such a flaw and endures an uncorrupted and loyal behavior throughout the play. As Macbeth strives to gain power and accomplishes his purposes at the expense of King Duncan’s life, Macduff meanwhile endures great personal loss in his attempts to cease Macbeth’s despotic behavior and restore justice and freedom to Scotland.

The characters and their continuous changes become the essence of the play.
