when the witches first meet the men on the road trip, they prophesied the future and how it would play out. This was the start of the structure. Shakespeare's Macbeth was a play where it was a goal. A job that needed to be done by Macbeth and it needed a plan. Every plan has a structure, a way it will be executed and played out. The goal was to kill the king so he would take over. His plan was to get the guards of the king drunk and kill him while they were unconscious. After the king was killed, he was to frame the guards for killing the king by leaving the knives with them as they laid unconscious. When he couldn’t go through with the plan all the way, his wife continued it carry out the plan by framing them herself. There was a structured plan in this. The goal of all this was to be the powerful one. Although even with the best structure, things can go off plan and that's when it can hurt you more than it can help you. When you have a plan that goes wrong, you have to counter attack and sometimes people don't think things through. This was a problem Mr.
Macbeth had. He did something out of his charter which lead him to do things to cover it up and he became another person. He changed his structure by simply changing his character. When Macbeth, found the only way to keep his power was to kill Banquo's son, he did it which wasn't planned or structure. This caused for unsteadiness. Macbeth became very overwhelmed. He became one who didn't even know who he was. Macbeth did things he didn't want to do, just to gain power and to retain it. The structure of the play had a huge affected on why he did what he did. He felt like there was no other choice. Macbeth had many examples and had lots of places where the structure of the play played an important role. Each setting was a significant part of the structure. The Macbeth’s house where the king was killed, the castle where Macbeth lead the land and the pond where Banquo's son was killed. There was a part in the play where they thought they had every thing figured and planned out, but Shakespeare's structure of the play didn't allow for it to work. Just like in real life, we can have our own agendas but we have to put the life we planned aside and take on the one awaiting
us. We as people and Macbeth can think we have it all planned out but most times it doesn't go as plan. Macbeth was one that had goal and he did what he think he had to do to get to where he wanted to be. The structure of this was rocky and that's why things went left.
