"The Scottish Play"


There is only one play known throughout the world as "That" play. The Scottish Play. A play so rooted in horror that some devotees dare not speak its name: Macbeth.

What is it about Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Macbeth that has haunted audiences for so many years? Why does superstition still surround it after four centuries? How can a mere drama be considered haunted?

   · Why did he write it?

   · How did he write it?

   · Is it cursed?

Based on years of research from Ancient Rome to the Early Modern Era, License to Quill will forever change how you look at William Shakespeare, his life, and his works!
