Step-by-step explanation:

William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" is about the general turned killer king Macbeth and his murderous ways in retaining the kingship, even killing his former friend Banquo.

An adaptation of Shakespeare's play is the "Voodoo Macbeth" by Orson Welles. This theatrical adaptation included elements of Haitian voodoo or witchcraft, which wasn't in the original plot. The setting of this theatrical group is also different in its setting, the Caribbean instead of the Scotland of Shakespeare, with an all black cast. But this adaptation also became famous for it's great interpretation of the play and also promoting African - American theater to the world.
