Whitney White's 'Macbeth in Stride' recently finished a successful two-week run at BAM, reinterpreting Shakespeare's classic with a rock and soul twist. The musical, which centers on Lady Macbeth, dynamically explores themes of ambition and female representation through self-referential elements and vibrant staging. Cast members include talented artists from the Broadway scene, such as Phoenix Best. White’s reworking breaks the fourth wall to engage the audience in a discussion about love and ambition, while paying homage to the historical roots of the play.
For me ... tonight there is one story / one play in particular that kicked it all off / the funky little chain reaction that led someone like me / To be standing before you now.
We all know you can't have ambition and love.
