SUMMARY:Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth' @ The Seymour Centre\,  Wednesday 25th March\, 2026 - 11.30am
DESCRIPTION:SEYMOUR CENTRE and SPORT FOR JOVE present ‘MACBETH’\n\n“Blood will have blood”\nShakespeare’s Macbeth returns in 2026\, bold\, visceral\, and more relevant than ever. \nAfter a smash-hit season and national tour in 2025\, Sport for Jove’s acclaimed production of Macbeth\, directed by George Banders\, is back at Seymour Centre for the Arts Education Program. This contemporary reimagining is a thrilling theatrical experience for students in Years 7 – 11\, offering a powerful introduction to Shakespeare’s language\, themes\, and dramatic form. \nSet in a world where ambition overrides morality and power corrupts absolutely\, an unexpected prophecy sends a national war hero and his brilliant wife as they spiral into a fever-dream for control. Shakespeare’s haunting tragedy combines Scottish and English history with Greek myth\, revealing a world where double-speak reigns\, violence is seductive\, and loyalty is a rare and precious thing. \nThis muscular\, modern production speaks directly to today’s students\, exploring the cost of ambition\, the fragility of conscience\, and the consequences of sacrificing humanity for personal gain. In an age obsessed with fame and influence\, Macbeth asks what happens when nature itself begins to fight back? \nSport for Jove’s Macbeth is boldly imaginative and true to the text\, filled with striking visuals\, rich performances\, and engaging revelations. It’s a fantastic introduction to Shakespeare for young people. \nImage credit: Dowling and Dowling Designs \n“What a fantastic production – my students loved it and were able to visualise the text and gain a tangible grasp of the plot\, characters and timeless themes of Macbeth!” \nRachel Greenwood\, Head English Teacher at Lucas Heights Community School \n“The contextual changes certainly stimulated lots of questions and discussions with our students back at school. We thank you for a valuable theatre experience for our students\, some of whom have never been to the theatre. A trip well worth all the planning! Look forward to seeing other productions in the future.” \nRachel Greenwood\, Head Teacher of English at Lucas Heights Community School \nAge recommendation: 12yrs + (under 16 year olds must be accompanied by a paying adult) \nYOU MUST BE A SHEN MEMBER TO BOOK TICKETS.  PLEASE ONLY BOOK FOR YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY. \nIf you chose Companion Card ticket\, please email ex********@******rg.au immediately after purchase with a copy of your Companion Card.
