Costume/ Set /Staging

 On Tuesday the 29th January, we as a group were deciding how we will map out the stage. The first scene includes the witches so we'll need a cauldron or a bucket that at least represents a cauldron, etc...

We thought that the lights will fill with a darker red as the show goes on to show the bloodshed, anger and madness, yet when Macbeth is killed at the end, the lights will neutralise to show evil has been stopped.


obviously, the theatre will be in the round but it doesn't have to make a circle. the audience just have to surround the actors, so we thought of  benches that the audience will sit on with gaps at either end so the actors can enter and exit the space.

We also decided as a sinister effect, the Witches will sit in the audience and rise on each of their line and make their entrance into the space.

Notes on various different costumes decided as a collective

Below, for my costume of a hitman when I'm playing the role of the murderer ( essentially a hitman) I have taken inspiration of my costume to be a polo shirt/ chino trousers and boat shoes to add that casual/ smart look; this adds effect to how casually they will murder Macduff's family.
