William Shakespeare wrote Macbeth in 1606. It was a play written for King James the I of England, who was also King James the II of Scotland. Shakespeare took the story from a book called The History of Scotland, by Raphael Holinshed, but made many changes, in the original story Banquo helped Macbeth to kill Duncan, but Shakespeare did not wish to offend the King, so in his play all the blame was placed on Macbeth.
