Description
'Shakespeare's most iconic characters take the mic, and centre stage, like never before.'
Lady Macbeth, Juliet, Emilia, and Richard III step into the spotlight, challenging the stories that shaped them, in this high-voltage fusion of rock, pop, soul, and gospel, created by award-winning artist, writer, and composer Whitney White.
With a live band and a stellar ensemble, this is Shakespeare turned all the way up. A ground-breaking theatrical event of two high-energy gig-theatre performances that revisit the stories of four of Shakespeare's most famous characters catalysed by a red-hot soundtrack.
All plays are published together in one volume to coincide with the world premiere of both parts at the Royal Shakespeare Company's The Other Place, Stratford-upon-Avon in January 2026.

Illuminated with songs and passion.

White is a charismatic presence with a butter-rich voice that can soar to soulful heights or get down 'n' dirty in rock and blues.
