2 Play script-Macbeth

Scene 4- The Banquet Scene

(Outside the castle)

Narrator 5: As the witches had prophecised, Macbeth's coronation eventually took place and was crowned King of Scotland. However, the witches also stated that Macbeth's children would not inherit the throne. Macbeth was tormented at the fact that his sons would not gain the same position by the seed of doubt planted in his head by the three hags. Additionally, he knew that Banquo's descendants would rule Scotland in the future.

Narrator 6: A great banquet has been organised to commemorate this elation and jubilance with all nobility invited to attend this ceremony; Banquo and his son, Fleance were invited too.

(Banquo approached Macbeth)

Banquo: Fleance and I will go riding out this afternoon but we will be back to attend this solemn supper, Siere.

Macbeth: Of course, my loyal friend, but ensure you are back in time for the banquet.

Narrator 5: Joyous at this act, Macbeth privately gave a smile.

(Macbeth and Lady Macbeth enter)

Macbeth: (calmly) Thank you everyone for attending this banquet in my honor.

Nobleman 1: (Stands up respectfully) We shall act upon your commands, Siere.

(Messenger enters)

Messenger 1: (whispers) The deed has been done my Lord. Alas, Fleance has escaped.

Narrator 6: As these words were whispered, a faint looming figure appeared before the eyes of Macbeth taking the soul of his body. Covered in red crimson blood, this was the true ghost of Banquo, which Macbeth realised immediately, however the rest of the members, including Lady Macbeth, took this insanity as an illness.
