Macbeth
Immerse yourself in this timeless tale of ambition, betrayal, and tragedy set against the breathtaking natural beauty of Melbourne’s iconic gardens. Let the night sky and open-air theatre transport you to the dark and mysterious world of Scotland's haunted moors.
Invading armies, blood, dark magic, sabotage, power, storms and ghosts of our pasts. Take all the spirits of those who have strived for power and relentlessly fought for control, this, is the story of Macbeth.
William Shakespeare’s shortest but most relentless tragedy illustrates a different way of life from what society is currently accustomed to, but reflects deeply on our modern world.
Perfect for a summer night out with friends, family, or a romantic evening.
