Macbeth the play

In the evening of 14 October 2011, my family and I watched Macbeth the play performed by TNT theatre Britain at the Hong Kong City Hall.  After a sumptuous meal at the Maxim’s Cafe on the second floor, we moved over to the theatre beside it.  The theatre is not really big but just big enough for roughly 400 seats.

The play started pretty soon.  It is an exciting and disheartening story about Macbeth turning into the bad guy.  I read the play and the performance was as good as what is written in the original play.  The best part of it was the scenes when Macbeth and Lady Macbeth plotted and carried out the murders.  Those were quite scary scenes.

What surprised me most was not found in the play but at the intermission when I ran into three of my teachers.  It was an enjoyable night.
