San Francisco's African-American Shakespeare Company gives a new beat to a timeless tragedy. MacB is set to music and choreographed to the rhythms of the spoken word. Macbeth is reincarnated as a record industry mogul, and his struggle is the battle to become the top dog in the music biz. The production touches the destructive and violent aspects of the music industry and how the promise of riches, fame, and power can lure a gifted, honorable man driven by passion and desire to destruction.
