Program Notes, cont.
III
For wars his life and half a world away The soldier sells his family and days. He learns to fight for freedom and the State; He sleeps with seven men within six feet.
He picks up matches and he cleans out plates; Is lied to like a child, cursed like a beast. They crop his head, his dog tags ring like sheep ~s his stiff limbs shift wearily to sleep.
Recalled in dreams or letters else forgot, His life is smothered like a grave, with dirt; ~nd his dull torment mottles like a fly's The lying amber of the histories. Randall Jarrell C/l 7.17~ Hartt Opera - Theater q~ J. /73 University of Hartford ft 7, I?

ACT lii Scene 1 The heath Scene 2 The Scottish border Scene 3 Room in the castle Scene 4 A battlefield SYNOPSIS
ACT I Scene 1. Macbeth and Banquo, generals in the arn1y of King Duncan of Scotland, have just won a great victory over a rebel army. They are met on the heath by witches who predict that Macbeth shall be Thane of Cawdor and King of Scotland, and who promise Banque that his sons shall sit upon the throne. Although Macbeth is already Thane of Glarnis he is nothing more, but while the witches' announce ment still resounds in his ears, messengers from the king arrive and in Duncan's name pronounce him Thane of Cawdor.
Scene 2. At Macbeth's castle the cruel and unscrupulous Lady Macbeth listens with exultation as her husband tells of the witches' prophecies. Their joint desire develops into a plot to kill the king. Suspecting nothing and wishing to do Mac beth further honor, the king visits him at his castle. Macbeth, driven by his ambitious wife, steels himself for the murder of King Duncan and singing the f arnous words "Is this a dagger that I see before me ?" he exits and stabs the king.
ACT If Scene 1. Lady Macbeth warns her husband, now king, that the witches promised Banque that his children would sit upon the throne. Maddened by the thought and encouraged by his wife to protect his royal position, Macbeth plans to kill Banque and his only son, Fleance. The jealous Macbeth arranges a banquet, and invites both Banque and Fleance to attend. On their v:ay to the castle the two are waylaid by murderers in the employ of Macbeth. Banque is killed, but Fleance escapes. Scene 2. At the banquet when Macbeth laments the absence of his honored guest, Banquo's ghost appears at the vacant seat. The terrified Macbeth, the only one who can see the ghost, tries to drive rl\vay the accusing spirit of his friend. Lady Macbeth's attempts to calm her husband fail.
ACT Ill Scene 1. Once again Macbeth visits the witches and is shown three apparitions, which warn him to beware of Macduff, predict that he need fear no man born of woman, and advise him to fear nothing 'til Birnam Wood shall against him corne. Unsatisfied, he insists on knowing if Banquo's son will reign in the kingdom. The answer convinces Macbeth that he will lose the cr0\\'11, and he swoons when the witches refuse to give him additional information. He recovers upon the arrival of Lady Macbeth who makes him swear death to Macduff and all his family. Scene 2. From the distance is heard the lamenting chant of the Scottish refugees at the border between Scotland and England. Malcolm, son of the slain King Duncan, rouses the bitter refugees and soldiers against Macbeth, and orders them to cut branches of Birnam Wood to disguise themselves in the attack. Scene _1. The Queen meanwhile has broken under the pressure of her guilty conscience for the crimes she has shared with Macbeth. \Vith a clouded mind she walks in her sleep, attempting to wash imaginary bloodstains from her hand. She dies, and when word of her death is brought to Macbeth, he curses Macduff for joining with England against him.
Scene ·L Hearing that Birnam Wt>od is moving against him Macbeth rushes out to do battle and fights until he meets Macduff. He hesitates to fight, until he remembers the witches' prophecy that he bears a charmed life and will not lose it to any man born of woman. Then he engages Macduff with his sword, only to have Macduff reveal that he was "from his mother's womb untimely ripped". The battle continues, and Macbeth is killed. Malcolm, son of Duncan, is proclaimed king. DIRECTORS AND STAFF Production Manager and Coach Irene Kahn Assistant Coach La111'a Ga11d et Musical Assistants Sidney foh11sfJ11.
