The Happiest Marriage in Shakespeare!

Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne - Southern Cross Lawn

31 Jan to 28 Feb 2025

About the Show

The Macbeths are back with their unparalleled thirst for the ultimate power of the throne.

“Their passion for each other is absolute in every way, as much metaphysical as erotic. The lust for power fuses with mutual desire and enhances the turbulence.”

A stunning mix of mind games and manipulation, sparked by the prophesies of three witches that Macbeth encounters on the heath as he returns from war, triggers his burning ambition which in turn ignites an inferno in his wife to inspire him to kill for the crown.

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.

“Macbeth, accusing himself of poor malice or inadequate slaughter, rouses himself to an apocalyptic ambition to tear apart the universe itself, destroying this world and the world to come."
