Overview
In Macbeth in Compton, Lady M, once a feared street rapper, ignites her partner’s ambition to take out King Duncan and seize the throne of their block. Over a night charged with lust, manipulation, and raw Shakespearean verse, the couple plots Duncan’s murder while visions of power consume them. When the moment comes, Mac hesitates, but the struggle turns deadly—leaving him crowned in blood and haunted by what he’s done.
