Toronto - On Saturday, August 21, 2010 General Macbeth: Castle Pon De Sand, presented by NCB Remittance Services, an agent of MoneyGram, opens in Toronto at the Toronto Centre For the Arts.

Written by Nicole R. White, with Terri Salmon playing Lady Macbeth and John Phillips playing Macbeth, General Macbeth: Castle Pon De Sand is an adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth. 

The play takes place in beautiful Jamaica, where a brave soldier, Macbeth wages a tireless battle against major drug cartels afflicting the island. This fearless fighter leads his army to victory; however, three devious fortune-tellers decide to test Macbeth’s true grit.

The fortune-tellers profess to Macbeth that he will be promoted to brigadier general, and ultimately general. The praises he receives from General Duncan and his fellow soldiers encourage Macbeth’s thoughts of the fortune-tellers’ prophecy; but the lust for power overwhelms him.

Macbeth attempts to combat his sudden evil desires; however, planning the demise of the current general intensifies when his wife, Lady Macbeth, convinces him that General Duncan is an obstacle to his success.

The six city tour opens August 21, 2010 at the Toronto Centre For The Arts.  Additional performances will be held in Ottawa, Hamilton, Etobicoke, Mississauga and Scarborough as part of the I Love The Caribbean Movement.   Tickets are available online at http://www.enjoymacbeth.com or by calling (647) 348-4311.
