Voodoo Macbeth

The plot

Voodoo Macbeth follows the first all-black cast to perform Shakespeare's Macbeth, directed by an arrogant Orson Welles in 1936 Harlem, NY. Inspired by true events, the film engages in a timely dialogue told with a contemporary perspective set in the 1930s.

One of the most unique elements of the film lies within the project's formation. With a grant from Warner Bros, USC was able to continue its almost decade-long feature filmmaking experiment with the production of Voodoo Macbeth.
