Reg Livermore’s Ned Kelly: The Musical

28 March 2026 Her Majesty's Theatre, Ballarat

Cold-blooded killer or folk hero?

Details Creatives & Cast Ticket Information

His name is etched into national folklore. The outlaw bushranger, his gang and that iconic suit of armour — who was Ned Kelly? A celebrated anti-hero or simply a cold-blooded killer?

Victorian Opera breathes fresh life into a neglected work of Australian theatre with Reg Livermore’s Ned Kelly: The Musical. Originally produced in the late 1970s, the musical charts the life and times of Australia’s most notorious bandit.

Directed by Stuart Maunder and conducted by Simon Holt, the new production is presented exclusively at Her Majesty’s Theatre, Ballarat, as part of Victorian Opera’s ongoing commitment to the region.

Plan a weekend getaway and experience an unforgettable piece of Australian theatre, starring the legend himself — Reg Livermore — in a special cameo.
