Queensland Ballet: Hamlet
15 July @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm AEST

The tragedy you know, retold in a gripping ballet for the ages.
Shakespeare’s most famous tragedy becomes a gripping dance drama in Leo Mujić’s Hamlet. Classical ballet technique fuses with visceral storytelling to capture the prince’s struggle with grief, revenge, and truth. Ensemble-driven choreography builds intensity, weaving a tapestry of power, betrayal, and mortality. With sweeping music by Tchaikovsky and Saint-Saëns, Hamlet transforms Shakespeare’s words into an electrifying physical language. A compelling reimagining of literature’s greatest story, rich with emotion and artistry.
