This Spring Equinox, the acclaimed national theatre troupe Come you Spirits brings you a magical performance to remember. Step into the ancient circle of the Australian Standing Stones National Celtic Monument as the sun sets and Shakespeare's most magical moments come to life around you.
Journey through a spellbinding selection of scenes including the enchanted mischief of A Midsummer Night's Dream, the sweeping passion of Antony and Cleopatra, the star-crossed longing of Romeo and Juliet, the tempests and sorcery of The Tempest, the swirling storm of King Lear, the dark prophecy of Macbeth, and the pastoral wit of As You Like It.
Woven together beneath open sky and standing stones, these timeless words take on new resonance. Language meets landscape, and Shakespeare's magic feels close enough to touch.
Refund policy - In the event of light rain, the performance will continue. If there is heavy rain the performance may be relocated, or cancelled, or a change of date, or refund offered. Company will advise on the day.
This experience is perfect for the whole family, so pack a picnic and savour the sensation of day and night falling into perfect balance. The equinox stirs a rare energy — a threshold moment where the veil feels thin, and transformation lingers in the air.
