This is so neat! I watched a performance of Macbeth a year or two ago (my brother was in it) and I don't recall any references to the The Stone, but I hadn't heard of it at that point either. My kids and I watched Stone of Destiny a while back and they will love to see a photo of the actual stone. They are quite proud of their own Scottish heritage and properly outraged by the misuse of The Stone :)
