SUMMARY:Darwin Symphony Orchestra - Shakespeare & Symphony
DESCRIPTION:Epic\, romantic\, and deeply human\, this world premiere concert-theatre production reveals why Shakespeare’s stories continue to resonate across centuries. Under the musical direction of Darwin Symphony Orchestra Artistic Director and Chief Conductor Richard Mills\, this immersive event blends the richness of orchestral sound with the raw energy of live theatre.\n \n\n  Shakespeare’s works have inspired some of the most magnificent music ever written\, and this program celebrates that legacy with drama\, beauty\, and emotional depth. One of the Northern Territory’s most celebrated actors\, Rob Collins\, brings Shakespeare’s words vividly to life\, weaving spoken performance through a program of orchestral masterworks.\n \n\n  The tragic romance of Romeo and Juliet is explored through the music of Berlioz and Tchaikovsky\, while Mendelssohn’s sparkling score illuminates the mischievous magic of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The evening culminates in Vaughan Williams’ radiant Serenade to Music\, performed by Darwin vocal ensemble Vocalective. This luminous work sets Shakespeare’s lyrical reflections on harmony from The Merchant of Venice to music\, offering a moving tribute to the power of art and connection.\n \n\n  Directed by Brown’s Mart Artistic Director Yvette Walker\, a proud Waanyi woman\, the production is shaped by a creative team deeply rooted in the Territory’s artistic community. Shari Sebbens\, Director of Top End Bub and star of The Sapphires\, provides creative development support\, while Logie-nominated\, FCAA award-winning actor Rob Collins anchors the performance with his magnetic stage presence.\n \n\n  Presented in collaboration with Darwin Festival and Brown’s Mart\, this unforgettable event offers a bold fusion of orchestral music and theatre. It’s a celebration of Shakespeare’s enduring influence\, the expressive power of live performance\, and the richness of storytelling through sound and word.\n \n\n  Whether you’re a lover of classical music\, theatre\, or timeless tales\, this production promises an evening of emotional resonance\, artistic brilliance\, and cultural celebration.
