There are various hypotheses about the ban on the performance of Macbeth. One of the reasons given by historians is that this play includes a lot fight scenes, which could result in a series of accidents. It is also mentioned in a few acknowledged histories that prop daggers were mistakenly swapped with real daggers, resulting in death of an actor.
