Shakespeare By the Lakes VI: MacbethJoin us for an unforgettable evening of live twilight theatre at Tuggeranong Town Park! This year, we're partnering with The Q to bring you Shakespeare's action-packed tragedy Macbeth.Tuggeranong Town Park will transform into the eerie beauty of the Scottish Highlands as the infamous witches weave their dark prophecies and Macbeth rises to power amidst a whirlwind of murder, secrets, and the occult, with a dynamic cast (and maybe a few audience members) who will bring the play to life.Gather your friends, pack a picnic, and strap in for a night of greed, ambition, and deception. Whether you’re a Shakespeare aficionado or new to the Bard, don’t miss this chance to experience Shakespeare’s shortest, sharpest, and bloodiest play like never before, as nature and theatre collide.As with all Lakespeare shows, we encourage audience members of all ages and love introducing younger audience members to the joys of watching Shakespeare. Parents should note that this production is faithful to the original text and contains some adult themes (battles, murder and the like).
