We studied Macbeth in class in High School English ( from the script) and after this, went to see the Polanski film- at the Playboy theatre! There are soldiers, a sergeant in particular in the beginning battle scene, and various members of the nobility, but I cannot recall any Doctors in the play. There is a nurse in Romeo and Juliet who helped ( having access to such things in her job)- procure Knockout drops for the title characters, something that would cause at minimum a license suspension ( tantamount to a prison sentence as Nurses cannot work without professional credentials, as much as say other licensed occupations ( airmen, cab drivers) the loss of occupational work- well that is a grave deterrent . I don"t recall any Doctors in Macbeth, Witches yes, but not (Witch Doctors) who can be either gender.

∙ 14y agoBy Act 5 Scene 1 of the play 'Macbeth', Lady Macbeth had fallen to pieces. After the murder of King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040], she had said that thinking of the killing would turn her and her husband mad. That's exactly what happened to her. She took up sleepwalking, talking to her self, rubbing her hands together, and needing a candle constantly lit against the darkness of her fears and nightmares. Macbeth asked the Doctor to cure his wife of her mental anguish and tortured memories of her role in individual crimes and in the suffering of the entire Scottish nation. Macbeth hoped for some 'sweet oblivious' antidote that the Doctor said didn't exist. The Doctor said that the problem was within Lady Macbeth's mind. She therefore needed to correct the problem herself.
