Macbeth Theatre Review
The play Macbeth, directed by Arthur Dignam and Robert Menzies, was unique from other interpretations of the well-known Shakespeare play ‘Macbeth’, as the main characters were performed by women, and one of the ‘Weird Sisters’ was performed by the male director, Arthur Dignam. This casting decision of experimenting with different gender roles is indeed interesting as it eliminates stereotypes i.e. witches are known to be females; and it challenges the idea of “what it means

Psychology
Probably the best way to approach the issue of schools of psychology is to take the extremes plus one approach that lays somewhere in the middle. For me that would be the psychodynamic school, the behavioral school and the cognitive school. Knowing that a cognitive approach to psychology emphasizes the "hear and now" approach, the psychodynamic approach is directly opposite. The psychodynamic school is predicated on analyzing the root causes of a dysfunctional behavior and
