Wow. You haven't read/don't have a clue as to what MacBeth is about? :confusion;

What is the world coming to?

Shakespeare is in English. how do you not understand it?

and seriously, she gave herself one night to get through Macbeth and do a project on it? heh.

feel free to ask any specific questions... I was big into Shakespeare in college, but there's no way I'm going to "translate" the play or write out a plot summary.

Sounds like she deserves the grade she gets. Sorry, no help from me on this one.

If you would have done the whole thing for her, then there are much larger problems here than her procrastination.

She made the stupid choice and she should accept the consequences of that.

Furthermore, "translating" Shakespeare into modern English would take away almost all of the beauty.
