Macbeth is Shakespeare's shortest tragedy and one of his best-known plays. Often referred to as an archetypal tale, it warns against lust for power and the betrayal of friends. Shakespeare based the play loosely on a King Macbeth of Scotland. The play is traditionally considered "e;cursed"e;, and thus many actors refer to it as "e;The Scottish Play"e; to avoid naming it.
