With Bangarra celebrating 30 years this year, you must have a bit of travel coming up?
Yes, we’re doing a national tour of our anniversary show, Bangarra: 30 years of sixty five thousand, which is a triple bill involving three contemporary works curated by the company’s artistic director, Stephen Page. The show includes a reworking of Frances Rings’ 2004 piece Unaipon, about the great Ngarrindjeri writer, inventor and storyteller, David Unaipon, who appears on the Australian $50 note. We’ll also perform Stamping Ground, created in 1983 by Czech choreographer Jirí Kylián and inspired by his travels around Australia to witness Indigenous ceremonies.
