YES. A freshman has been cast as Lady Macbeth, and the jealous upperclassmen try to hide their envy as they get to know her. In addition to having pitch-perfect theater major dialogue, this play also touches on how few good roles there are for females in the plays that tend to get done in college. Maybe these girls would be less desperate, jealous, and macbitchy if there were more exciting female roles to go around. That's not an issue in this play, however, where every role would be a treat. What a great show for college-age actors!
