Mackenzie

  • Theatre
  • Entertainment

What if MacBeth was a 13-year-old child star? A camp, dark and deranged retelling of Macbeth.

Mackenzie is 13 and she’s booked her first-ever TV gig: a tiny part on a huge kids show. It’s a small start, but Mackenzie’s mum has always felt sure that her daughter was destined for superstardom. One day, Mackenzie and her best on-set friend Beau encounter a geriatric make-up artist who is struck with a vision – that Mackenzie will be the number one pop girl of the world.

Set in the heights of early 2000s TV stardom, prepare for a wild ride that will leave you in stitches – and deeply disturbed.

Originally developed with the support of Home Grown Australia.
