Macquarie Musical Society invites you to join us in a night of drunken merriment as the locals of Whitechapel relate the ultimate tale of murder, mystery and intrigue.


As one by one Whitechapel prostitutes are slain by the Ripper himself, the locals inhabiting the Steampacket Music Hall unknowingly play host to real murder.


It is 1888, at the height of the terror surrounding the killings. Jack the Ripper is among them, a shadow weaving through the hall like a predator, but who? Is he the butcher, the foreigner or even a woman?



Explore the events that gave rise to the creation of a character of mythic proportions in scenes of Laughter; beauty; grace; high drama; ethereal love; murder and Terror – TERROR GALORE!
