Overview
Epic and provocative, The Shadow King reworks Shakespeare's timeless tragedy King Lear as a sprawling, blood-soaked tale of two Indigenous families in Australia's north. Weaving a parable that echoes our nation's history, this ambitious new production is truly unmissable theatre of a scale and significance to match the land on which it's made.
