Synopsis: Many audiences who have watched Macbeth, one of Shakespeare’s most famous plays, would not have realized Macbeth is based on a true story. At first glance, King Macbeth’s story seems like an odd choice for Shakespeare to immortalize onstage. He could have chosen to write about someone his audience might have heard at some point. Instead, he chose to write about King Macbeth and the play went on to be wildly successful. (Part 1)
