MACBETH Opens Friday at Whidbey Island Center for the Arts
A drum, a drum...Macbeth doth come On a barren heath, three weird sisters tell the great and bloodied Macbeth that he is fated to be King of Scotland. And so begins a terrifying series of events that lead to the murder of a King, friends, mothers, and their children. Macbeth and his Lady fall prey to a soul-corroding guilt as they desperately try and cling to the defiled crown.
