Monday: Act 1, Scene 7 Performance

"A drum, a drum! Macbeth doth come."

Brad Butland and Kate Cooper Butland of Hubcity Theatre Company will join us Monday morning for a dramatic rendering of Act 1, Scene 7! They brought years of acting experience to playing the parts of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth in last summer's Shakespeare in the Park production of Macbeth.

Please demonstrate respect and appreciation for our guests by:
- preparing for their visit by reading the scene and answering the questions (1,2,4,7)
- arriving BEFORE the bell
- giving them your full attention at all times
- making thoughtful contributions to the discussion and Q&A session

Assignment:
In order to get the most out of our time with them, please submit a question for Brad and/or Kate in the comments below. (Remember to attach your name to the question so that I will be able to give you credit for it.)

You might ask about their development of character and relationship, changes or challenges they encountered in rehearsing the roles, the justification for their acting choices, or their perspectives on themes relevant to the scene.

I am looking for questions that give evidence of your ability to think critically by delving below the surface into motivations, justifications, inferences, and connections.

Deadline:
To receive credit, you must submit your thought-provoking questions no later than 11:00 pm Sunday night. I'm looking forward to hearing what you're wondering about the scene and the performance.

This is all very exciting!
