Following an acclaimed season at Her Majesty's Theatre Ballarat, Victorian Opera is bringing its hit production of Reg Livermore’s Ned Kelly: The Musical to Melbourne.

Kelly's 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?
