The Curse of Macbeth

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LKMktAN4hc

I chose this clip, because it tied into our class discussion about the supernatural and the mysticism surrounding Macbeth and its “curse.” It was really fun to listen to my classmates’ stories about their experience with the play, and the mishaps that occurred. With that in mind, this video talks about occurrences in the history of the play, and of course, how to lift the curse.
Is it necessary to talk about the history of the “curse” of Macbeth, while teaching the play to students? Do you believe in the curse?
