On Act II · 12:55am Feb 27th, 2012
A few notes:
*I've been thinking about whether or not to include the religious aspects of Macbeth in this story. After much deliberation, I decided to keep them because, while Equestria probably wouldn't have the same religious culture as our world, most cultures do have some sort of religion involving good, evil, salvation, and damnation. Also, the religious aspects of Macbeth aren't meant to be shoved down the audience's throats, but to emphasize the feelings of negativity, guilt, and fear through allusions to Hell.
*I totally cut a half of a scene from the original. I love Shakespeare, but I don't think that chunk is necessary to the play.
*There are only two scenes in the original Act 2. I chopped the act up because I thought it made more sense in terms of creating a sense of space.
*Also, I somehow made Nightsong more horrible than Lady Macbeth. I don't know how that happened.
