Macbeth Act 5

Macbeth Act 5 Scene 7 and 8
I played Young Siward. I come in first asking who Macbeth is. Then siward is saying how even Macbeth's name is like a curse word. Then Macbeth is a liar and siward dispises him and tries to kill him.
Next Siward, his father, comes to the castle with Malcolm saying how there is a battle and there's not much malcolm can do right now. Finally, this next scene Siward finds out his son has been killed, but knows he died a noble soldiers death and wishes for no more sorrow to be spent on him.
Acting out the scenes was kind of fun. I did like the group that I was assigned to and thought it turned out to be pretty funny. Interacting and watching made class go by quick and fun. It did help understand who all the characters were talking about and to, rather then us just guessing what was going on during the whole play. Wish I could have seen the rest of the skits that were done on Friday!! I'm sure the other did not quite topped Act 5 though! They were pretty impressive.
The asking quesitons part was just kind of hard to do on the spot. Act 1 did well on their parts. I asked why they had done the scene chosen. This is cause that scene had the right amount of people needed for their group.
