Relationships between two characters can be determined by how they speak
to each other, how they act towards each other or how others speak about them. In
the plays “Macbeth” by Shakespeare and “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” by Tennessee
Williams there are relationships that change over the course of the plays. In
“Macbeth,” Macbeth himself and Lady Macbeth go through many stages in their
relationships through out the play. They later find out that they were never in love
through death and betrayals. In “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof,” Big Daddy and Big Mama
have a different relationship than Macbeth but they still go through problems that
relate to death as well. Both of these plays are examples of how relationships change
through the plays.
In the Shakespeare’s play “Macbeth,” Macbeth and Lady Macbeth don’t have a
typical relationship. Throughout the play Lady Macbeth seems to be very controlling
and some might say even a bit crazy while Macbeth is very to himself for most of the
play. In the beginning of the play Lady Macbeth is the one that causes the killing of
Duncan. After the killing of Duncan the relationship between Macbeth and Lady
Macbeth isn’t the same. Shakespeare writes “I am in blood Stepp’d in so far, that,
should I wade no more, Returning were as tedious as go o’er” (Act V Scene I). What
Lady Macbeth is speaking about when she says this in the play is that she can’t and
will not get over Duncan’s death. This also

Macbeth is a play about a Scottish general (Macbeth) who receives a prophacy from three witches that states that one day, he wil become the king of Scotland. This makes Macbeth power hungry so he decides to murder the current king of Scotland, Duncan. As people grow more and more suspicious of who killed Duncan, Macbeth is forced to commit more murders in order to protect himself from being exposed. This leads to him becoming filled with paranoia and guilt, which ultimately is his major downfall. Shakespeare wrote this play in 1606 to make people realize that excessive ambition can have terrible consequences. Both the play and the movie incorporate murders into telling the story of Macbeth, but they do so in different ways.
