Combine ghosts, murders and sword fights with the memorable English language written by William Shakespeare.

The PM&L Theatre will bring a Shakespeare classic to stage as they open "Macbeth" Friday at the Antioch theater.

Director Fran Jansta said the show is appealing because actors love to do Shakespeare.

Chuck Lindas, who plays Macbeth, said the emotions and motivations of the characters are universal. Emotions like greed, not fully thinking out ramifications of decisions and digging yourself in worse are actions still relevant today. That's why this is still being performed 400 years later.
