Macbeth was performed at Catholic University's Hartke Theater this past weekend. But, students who are cast in the production have been sharing it for more than a week with the Washington, D.C., area community through a new program called CUActing tour.   The tour began in area high schools and included a stop at the Blair House transitional shelter in northeast D.C., where residents watched a 45-minute highlight of the show. The tour continues at other high schools and the Sunrise Assisted Living facility in northwest D.C. It will conclude April 26 at D.C.'s Metropolitan Club.   To watch an interview with Director Eleanor Holdridge about the production, click here.
