Australia’s national theatre company specialising in the works of Shakespeare and his contemporaries

We ensure Shakespeare’s work lives and breathes in theatres, schools and communities throughout Australia, where his words can be truly appreciated.
We value the beauty of Shakespeare’s ideas, language and imagery. His work helps us find modern perspectives on timeless truths.
We believe Shakespeare and other great works are not stuck in the past. They are the lens through which we can explore and question the present and imagine the future.
These plays are not static. They’re constantly helping us make sense of who we are, where we’ve been, and where we’re going. And we’re not static either. We’ve been travelling the country for 30 years, bringing classic theatre to Australia, looking for new ways to inspire, imagine and ignite.
Shakespeare and the other classic plays we present challenge our beliefs and urge us to see ourselves in a new light. Their ability to discover the things that make us human inspires us to make work that challenges preconceptions and encourages new interpretations and contemporary parallels – work that speaks to every age.
