Summary
GARDINER - Johnson Hall Performing Arts Center will present The Theater at Monmouth's production of William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" Saturday, Feb. 2.
Most likely written in 1606 in honor of James I, the new Scottish- born King of England, "Macbeth" is Shakespeare's shortest and darkest tragedy.
