Hi,
I have an oral to do in English class on Macbeth; it can either be a monologue, dialogue, soliloqui (really don't know how to spell that) or something like that.
Anyway I'm not too bad at acting and I wanna pick a scene and interpret it in either a funny/sarcastic way or an intelligent, original way. I don't even have to use the language of the text, I can put it into modern language, and I can connect it to a modern issue, or pretty much do anything I like.
Any ideas? I'm allowed to do it with a partner.

Thanks!

"I wanna pick a scene and interpret it in either a funny/sarcastic way or an intelligent, original way. ".... That would be hard to do with an idea you want us to give you since it would be our interpretation and not yours.

Great idea, try to develop this scene:

Macbeth and Macduff were agents of the dangerous kind- America and Britain's finest secret weapons. But when Macbeth and his (semi-platonic) partner Banquo are confronted by three witches who prophesize their rise to power, things become unclear as to the lines of right and wrong. With the nagging of his power-hungry wife, Macbeth is forced to take the prophecy in his own hands... but there is one small problem. Macduff has been sent on his next mission- and Macbeth is the target. As tension rises and people start dying, it only becomes too clear to the agents: only one of them is walking away from this... because this time, it's personal.

i'm guessing which you have study it magnificent?? properly write down all of the subject concerns from that first scene (when you consider that subject concerns of novels are linked to the temper) particularly the subject of 'blood' on the grounds that's extensive in Macbeth, and say how they set up the temper for something of play. the 1st scene is dark and supernatural so as which skill something of the play would be that way as properly, that's genuine. the play is crammed with paranoia, dying, and ghosts. additionally the secrecy of the witches skill that secrets and techniques would be obvious for the period of the play, that's additionally genuine. secrecy is a subject and temper of Macbeth. purely take all and something which you already know and use it any way you are able to. a minimum of that's going to look such as you tried your ultimate regardless of ways the essay seems. good success :]

You can do a skit based upon the famous quotes in MacBeth and twist them to make them funny. Since MacBeth has some of the most famous and memorable quotes this is ripe territory for humor.
