Welcome to Macbeth In Stride.
I am thrilled to welcome you to the A.R.T.’s second in-person show at the Loeb Drama Center this fall. We have been eager to share this piece since before the pandemic. Originally scheduled to premiere in our 2019/20 Season, Macbeth In Stride marks the launch of Whitney White’s five-part series exploring women and ambition in Shakespeare’s plays. After Lady Macbeth, the series will continue with four more pieces (commissioned by A.R.T.) interrogating works including Othello, Antony and Cleopatra, and Romeo and Juliet.
Whitney was most recently at A.R.T. as the director of What to Send Up When It Goes Down in fall 2019. Now onstage as creator/
If you joined us for Ayodele Casel: Chasing Magic, take a close look at the stage: some of what you see may be familiar. As we embrace regenerative practice as one of our core values at A.R.T., our production team has collaborated with scenic designer Dan Soule to create a repertory set which will serve as a base for all of our fall programming. (After Macbeth In Stride, we welcome the Silkroad Ensemble in November for Phoenix Rising, followed by our concert production of WILD: A Musical Becoming in December.) In addition to supporting our COVID-19 safety procedures, this “rep set” helps reduce the energy and materials consumed to mount these productions.
After so much isolation and physical distancing, I am filled with awe and gratitude each time I step into a theater. Recent weeks have reminded me that nothing can truly replace the power of gathering together in person. I remain grateful to all the individuals helping us reopen safely, including Dr. Joseph Allen and his team at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. I am also grateful to our audiences for embracing our health and safety guidelines. Thank you so much for helping to make live theater possible again.

Jordan Carter
A.R.T.: Macbeth In Stride. Jordan Carter developed an unshakable passion for percussion by the age of five and began playing for local churches in his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio before landing a recurring gig with the internationally acclaimed “Singing Angels”. Carter’s acute focus on music led to his enrollment at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in 2010. Since his stint at Berklee, Carter’s knack for playing various styles and genres has solidified him as one of Boston’s most sought-after session drummers. Most notably, he can be heard on Marilyn Wright’s Give Me A Clean Heart, which was nominated for multiple gospel awards upon its release. Although Jordan Carter has adopted Boston as his second home, he has toured more than eight countries and played drums for globally recognized cruise lines. When he’s back in the states, Carter can be seen recording with or playing for artists including: Mark Marren, Torrence Nelson and Bquiz. Most recently, Carter plays for Sing, Oompa and the Phase 2 in the midst of accepting the Musical Director position for one of Boston’s burgeoning stars, Marcela Cruz. Carter has committed himself to acquire the skills and network to make a sustainable living as a full-time musician, thus allowing him to present his own band, “The confirmation band” to the world. He’s stated that he owes his mother, Glennis Carter, countless praise for preserving his passion, which has evidently blossomed into a very promising career in music.
