A spokesperson describes the event as follows:

“...theatrical event created by Obie Award-winning artist Whitney White and performed by White with an ensemble and a live band, Macbeth In Stride examines what it means to be an ambitious Black woman through the lens of one of Shakespeare’s most iconic characters. The sensational production uses R&B, pop, rock, and gospel to trace the fatalistic arc of Lady Macbeth while lifting up contemporary Black female power, femininity, and desire.
