What is lady Macbeth's plan in act 1?

Answer 1

In the play, Lady Macbeth's ambition was to become Queenalongside her husband Macbeth as King. She revealed that ambition, in Act 2 Scene 1, while reading the letter from her husband about the predictions of the three witches. She further revealed that ambition in her two conversations with Macbeth before he ended up killing his sovereign. She let him know that there was no backing down and no retreating from anything other than the king's death at her husband's hands.

Answer 2

Kill King Duncan so Macbeth can take his throne and become king. i suggest you to read a little about it, if you don't like reading (like me ) then go to sparknotes.com that's were i go when i have to read novels or books i don't really like.

Yes, she wanted him to kill King Duncan, (poor him) but that's a little vague. She wanted him to kill many people who were next in line to the throne so that he could then become King, resulting in her becoming Queen. Then, she realised what a horrible person she was and thought about how many people had died, and decided that she wanted to die. She threw herself out of a tower window, although some people say that she stabbed herself. I suggest you research that :) Hope this has helped :)

Answer 3

Macbeth wanted to be king; however, his wife wanted this even more. "Out, out, damn Spot." So Macbeth put the dog out who bit the true king. He died and Macbeth became king but in the interim, his wife, who now wished her dog back, slit her wrists and died. Later in the story, Dunsinane came from Birnham Wood from whence the true king emerged. He was from LOTR, realised he not only was on the wrong set but in the wrong country. Turning to leave, he advised Macbeth, "To thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man." The truth is that Macbeth wanted to be king.

Answer 4

Lady Macbeth's plan was to kill Duncan in his sleep. It was to get him so drunk that he can sleep heavy and won't wake up. Macbeth then will pass by the guards kill them with the daggers and go in to kill Duncan

Answer 5

She wants to be the queen. It is not clear why, but perhaps the ability to be the hostess who throws fashionable and elegant dinner parties is part of it. This might explain why she is so devastated when her dinner party is a shambles due to Macbeth's erratic and violent behaviour.

Answer 6

Without Lady Macbeth, the play is Richard III. The plays are very similar, involving the usurpation of a throne and the downfall of the usurper. The difference is Lady Macbeth. Macbeth would not have murdered Duncan without pressure from his wife (see his soliloquy "If it were done when 'tis done" in 1,7, and she would not have murdered him herself because it's one thing to talk about doing something and another to actually do it. We see that this is the case with her because of her line "Had he not resembled my father as he slept, I'd ha' done it."

Because actually doing the murder was foreign to their natures, the Macbeths are racked with guilt and fear that Richard does not fear until the night before Bosworth. It drives the Macbeths insane; it actually changes their personalities.

Answer 7

She wants to become queen when she here's the prophecy that Macbeth will be king
