A notable piece from Shakespeare that isn't overly dramatized. Realistic human behaviors. Metaphors.
Moderate: Child death, Death, Emotional abuse, Gore, Mental illness, Panic attacks/disorders, Suicidal thoughts, Suicide, Torture, Violence, Blood, Grief, Murder, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , Gaslighting, War, Injury/Injury detail, and Classism
Minor: Cursing, Rape, Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Slavery, Police brutality, Death of parent, Fire/Fire injury, and Sexual harassment
Some content warnings not to be taken literally, due to the time period the play is set in. Example: "police brutality" adjacent to atrocities the knights committed (specifically against Macduff's family).
