☆☆☆☆☆Macbeth.
Most critics date Macbeth to 1606 - though a few suggest it may have been played in Edinburgh as early as 1602.
So, just over 400 years.
In Act 1, Lady Macbeth is the planner, the one who is dragging her reluctant husband into committing one murder. But by Act 4, Macbeth commits murder after murder and Lady Macbeth is the reluctant one, nauseated and consumed with guilt by the bloodshed. The roles actually reverse much earlier in the play, when Macbeth kills the grooms. That was not in Lady Macbeth's plan, and she is horrified by it.
