Favorite Idea

From Macbeth:

The plot is determined by the Acronym of Macbeth

Masculinity
Ambiton
Cruelty or Corruption
Blood
Elements (as in supernatural)
Tyranny
Hallucinations

The plot is about a modern couple fairly resembling the characters and story of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth; but if not then at least their relationship and the problems within it.Each Letter of the Acronym marks a different scene that reveals more about their lives and their crumbling relationship and marriage. E.g. Masculinity could reveal a scene where the wife is clearly more powerful over the husband and it shows his lack of masculinity within their relationsship. Or e.g. Corruption could mean cheating on either side of the relationship to show the demoralization and fraud of the marriage.
Between each scene a person will walk on with a sign saying what the scene is about marking what the audience must look for in order to make sense of the story. Flashbacks and flash forwards could be included in the story.
