Neptune Theatre has launched its latest show of the season, a small-cast production of Macbeth starring local talent Jeremy Webb. The show’s company includes one offstage performer, however – Symphony Nova Scotia’s own newest cellist, Benjamin Marmen. Described as nothing short of “amazing”, Marmen’s compositions underscore the entire play, transporting viewers through the bedevilled king’s journey into madness.…
