Macbeth: A Tribute to the Federal Theatre Project (Adapted and directed by Adjoa Andoh MBE)
A staged reading commemorating the 90th anniversary of the Federal Theatre Project’s production of Shakespeare’s Macbeth concludes Adjoa Andoh’s Director’s Residency at the Folger.
The incredibly successful 1936 staging was one of the first to feature an all-Black cast in the United States and was directed by a young Orson Welles. Andoh’s adaptation celebrates the skill of the Black classical actors and musicians involved in the historic production, and stars Andoh alongside a full company of actors.
The reading is being performed as a benefit event for the Folger Shakespeare Library.
