Watch Kerry Ellis sing ‘What Must Be Done’ from new musical Lady M

A video of West End star Kerry Ellis singing a song from new musical Lady M has been revealed!

Based on Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’, Lady M tells the untold story of Lady Macbeth.

Chilling flashbacks of her haunted past are woven into this reimagining of the famous tale of murder and power, revealing an original backstory to Lady Macbeth’s villainy and downfall.

James Beeny and Gina Georgio of Toy Soldier Productions have released a special music video of West End star Kerry Ellis performing Lady Macbeth’s What Must Be Done from the musical – which you can watch below!

Created, adapted, and written by Beeny and Georgio, the sung-through musical features a modern score with original music and lyrics.

What Must Be Done has been produced by Beeny and Georgio alongside Rik Simpson, Coldplay’s multi-Grammy Award-winning producer (Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends, Mylo Xyloto, Ghost Stories, A Head Full of Dreams, Everyday Life).

Lady M recently underwent a second development workshop in London, directed by Jean-Pierre Van Der Spuy and choreographed by Lizzi Gee. The workshop cast included George Blagden, Phoebe Fildes, Robert Hands, Jamie Muscato, Maiya Quansah-Breed, and Karl Queensborough.
