for school, theres a project where groups must act out parts of macbeth... so my group is doing scene 4 act 1, where the 3 witches meet up again with hecate and then macbeth comes and the three apparitions appear and so on

so we can be creative with our little videos...
does anyone have any ideas for a theme for this project?

like motorcycle macbeth had this modern twist with war and motorcycles, etc.
and things like that

any ideas at all really, like sets, background music, costumes, speech, etc.

but if you give me a theme that would be the best

thanks in advance

Think about your project and modern stories about the characters and see what you have(Besides Bill Clinton becoming president like MacBeth)

You have to understand Macbeth itself before you can remake it with a modern twist. Restaurant business is out because it has already been done "Scotland, PA" was brilliant. You have to pick a main area where the character is trying to rise to power in order for this to make sense. You can't just randomly come up with things.

If you want to do motorcycles then you need to pick a motorcycle gang and run with that. Maybe the witches work in a mechanics shop or something. I don't know, but really research Macbeth before you choose a direction otherwise the translation will be lost.

You also have to realize that if you are going to film this in public you have to get permits and permission from people in order to film.

nicely. I surely have idea a touch about this. right here is what I surely have:be conscious: it truly is funnier if you're white skinned. No racism meant. Macbeth "Bitches be trippin'" or in case you are able to't swear - and perchance this one is even better because there have been 3 witches contained in the play - Macbeth "Witches be trippin'" Oh and then for the poster - you are able to make it like the poster for a Tyler Perry action picture or something. OR - even perchance better - a disney flick with a guy and three women human beings (witches)
