In this episode of Read It and (Don’t) Weep, we explore Act 1, Scenes 6 and 7 of Macbeth. King Duncan arrives at Macbeth’s castle and is warmly welcomed, completely unaware of the danger surrounding him. The scene highlights the theme of appearances versus reality, as the castle seems peaceful and inviting even while a dark plan is forming.

Inside the castle, Macbeth struggles with the decision he is facing. While he begins to question whether the plan should go forward, a conversation with Lady Macbeth pushes him to reconsider. By the end of the scene, the couple reaches a decision that will set the rest of the play into motion.
