Hamlet

Love turns deadly and power corrupts all in Queensland Ballet’s Hamlet — a gripping dance drama by international choreographer Leo Mujić, where every choice carries a cost.

Set to the sweeping music of Tchaikovsky and Saint‑Saëns, Mujić’s Hamlet transforms Shakespeare’s immortal characters into a powerful physical language, where classical ballet fuses with visceral, contemporary movement. Through ensemble‑driven choreography, the drama surges and fractures, creating a work that is raw, unrelenting, and devastatingly human.

Coming to the Talbot Theatre June 18 – July 19.
