Hamlet is one of the great classics, if not the greatest, of English drama. Set in Denmark, the play recounts how Prince Hamlet exacts revenge on his uncle Claudius, who has murdered Hamlet's father, the King, and then taken the throne and married Gertrude, Hamlet's mother.

Macbeth est un noble écossais. Il vient de combattre glorieusement contre les Norvégiens, au service de son roi : Duncan, roi d'Ecosse. Sur le chemin, il rencontre des sorcières qui lui font d'étranges prédictions. Il apprend ainsi qu'il portera le titre de "sire de Cawdor" et même celui de "roi". C'est alors que le roi Duncan le remercie en lui attribuant effectivement le titre de "sire de Cawdor", après avoir fait exécuter le noble qui portait auparavant ce nom et qui l'a trahi.
