Also here quoting @avasreid Lady Macbeth from which I found great inspiration in my research for the role ✨✨
According to choreographer Akram Khan, the most important thing for audiences to understand about his new ballet “Lady Macbeth” is that “it’s really not ‘Macbeth.’ It’s its own story as a response to Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth.’” Premiering at Royal Danish Ballet on April 24, the evening-length centers the perspective of Lady Macbeth, who in the Shakespeare play conspires with her husband to murder Scotland’s monarch, King Duncan, and seize his throne.
While Khan is not the first choreographer to take inspiration from the notoriously power-hungry character (Helen Pickett premiered her own “Lady Macbeth” for Dutch National Ballet last year), his approach is decidedly singular, reshaping the narrative to draw parallels to contemporary phenomena like climate-change denial, toxic masculinity, and political scapegoating.

“Are you trippin’ forest ain’t a curse it’s a pinnacle, being dead with time to rest is like a fucking miracle”
ALL THE CREATURES IN THE FOREST 🌳
A moment from my solo ob(e)ject, @blaagaardteater February 2026
When women die in ballet, they go to live in forest of the second act. But we only ever see them when the prince arrives.
In this chapter of the solo, I wonder what they do the rest of the time, how they manage to look so pale and clean if they’ve lived in the forest for hundreds of years and if they really care about forcing men to dance to death or if they just care about dancing for themselves.
