Homework• Deep, Deep Questions Add-On

Passage (Quotation and Speaker) Captain: “For brave Macbeth (well he deserves that name), / Disdaining Fortune, with his brandished steel, / Which smoked with bloody execution, / Like valor’s minion, carved out his passage / Till he faced the slave . . . (1.2.18-22)

Paraphrase In spite of our troops’ bad luck, brave Macbeth carved out his way with his executioner’s sword through the ranks of rebel soldiers until he faced the traitor who led the revolt. The captain reports to King Duncan that Macbeth fought fiercely to spill the blood of the traitors who rebelled against Duncan and Scotland.

Explain relevance to Deep, Deep Question

In the passage, the loyal Scottish captain is bloody because of the rebels’ uprising. Because of his bravery, fierceness, and loyalty, Macbeth makes the rebels bloody. In this instance Macbeth shows the reader that he controls his own destiny by fighting for his beliefs and killing the traitors so that they do not kill him.

Acting Companies Options for Act 2

• Performance Options• Your group needs to settle on one of the

following options for presenting your assigned lines:

• Dramatic performance (must be performed in front of the class with music, props, backdrop, and costumes)

• Puppet show (Your reading must be dramatic; you must create puppets and backdrops)

• Interpretive dance (Some one reads the lines dramatically as you interpret them through dance moves)

• Make it a musical (Turn some/all of your lines into song)

• Transform it into a TV show (Real World, Law and Order, Jerry Springer, etc); you must still incorporate the original lines from your assigned scene.

• Other ideas? Run them by Mr. Ruggles!• Have FUN with this—go all out! Now is not the
