The macbeth curse?
Black magic spells for the witches Those who are connected with a performance
of the play are not to mention the title while in the theater or the entire company will be cursed

1. “that play”
2. “the unmentionable”
3. “the Scottish play”
4. “the plaid play”

Macbeth curse?
They believe curse began on opening night, August 7, 1606- and continues today. So-
What if? The offender must go outside, turn three
times, spit, and then say the foulest word he/she can think of. Then he/she must wait for permission to re-enter the theater.
