"Macbeth," a play written by William Shakespeare can be summed up in many words, a few of those words are straight out of the play. "Fair is foul and foul is fair," not only sums up the play but also sets up an on going theme for the play and that theme is stressed through the numerous facades the main character, Macbeth, puts on.
