The Lady Behind the Throne

The Lady Behind the Throne

Umapagan goes to Shakespeare this week to discuss the Scottish play, which was staged, by the way, early in April this year with the cast in very beautiful Chinese Opera costume.

But Uma isn’t so much interested in what’s on the glittering outside but the dark desires that lead to regicide, murders and the like to attain and hold on to the throne.

But sometimes, the king is on the throne because of the woman behind it has the ability “to pour [her] spirits in [his] ear/ And chastise with the valour of [her] tongue.” In short, she commands, and he obeys.
