Ned Kelly's Last Stand
Ned Kelly - notorious Australian bushranger, thief and murderer - was captured in Glenrowan after a long hostage siege at the local hotel was broken by a firey and bloody shootout. Ned was captured soon after whilst wearing a suit of armour. Famous and infamous Ned is part of Australian folklore. Glenrown is a small country town that depends almost entirely on tourist trade centered around the capture of Ned and his brothers. The following is the spiel of this unique and fascinating computerised animatronics display - if you get a chance do see it - worth every penny charged and full of fun. These images were taken during the show - there are no actors just robots, screens and special effects - amazing!!
QUOTE - through the brilliance of animation and computerised robots, you will be transferred back in time, over 100 years, to witness the events that lead up to the capture of the Kelly Gang. Starting as hostages in the hotel, and then onto gunfights - burning buildings - shoot outs - a decent hanging, finishing in our magnificent painting gallery. The show is educational, historically correct and entertaining. - END QUOTE
