plot by which these ambitions are
fulfilled and how it brings tragedy
to the scheming couple.

changes of scenery." The. play is
divided into 17 scenes and will
run for an approximate time of
two hours. There will be a ten
minute intermission between
scenes eight and nine.

used for background music which
will add to the effectiveness of
"Macbeth's" many dramatic mo
ments. Other members of the cast in
