A surprising and interesting look at Shakespeare’s classic character from a different perspective. By Rob John.

Lily Morgan is…well, she’s just ordinary. She’s nice, reliable, easy-going, and not the kind of girl who likes to stand out in a crowd. Her tutor describes her as ‘average,’ and the girls at school think she’s ‘alright, okay’, although some say ‘she’s dull.’ What Lily’s boyfriend Barry likes most about her is that ‘she never makes an exhibition of herself like some other girls do’.  

So, when Lily Morgan decides to audition for the part of Lady Macbeth in the school production of Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’, everyone is surprised, shocked even.

Lily’s best friend Monica does her best to stop her going through with the audition, certain she will become a laughing stock. But Lily will not be deterred and as she becomes immersed in the role her confidence grows - ‘Her eye fixed on a solitary ambition’.
