I was going to rec other people's storytimes, but I realised I'd just have to put them all in because they're all much too good and funny.
So go here:

Storytime! Macbeth
by John Elliott,
(PG)
It has to be said it's the King of Storytimes. (Curses and all that!)
Jamie decides it's time to read the toddlers the Scottish Play. Worth reading just for that, but add to that Jamie's Angels and intervention by Will Shakespeare himself and you'll see what I mean. And I haven't even started on the casting. To say too much would spoil things (gettings surprised by a great piece of casting is part of the fun), but it won't give too much away to say that Turlough and Tegan play the title roles.

Tegan / Lady Macbeth :
Then let's get back to our bedroom, wash our hands, and make it look like we were asleep in bed. Honestly, have you never read any detective fiction?
Turlough / Macbeth :
I did Macbeth in the fifth form. Trust me, Sherlock Holmes does not put in an appearance.
Not mine. Sadly. (Turning green).
