Award-winning choreographer Frances Rings (Rations, X300, Unaipon, Artefact, Terrain) unfolds the stories of She Oak – the Grandmother Tree. Rooted to the past, trunk to the present and branches to the future, this is a true silent witness to the experiences of Australia's First Peoples.
Acclaimed Bangarra artists Deborah Brown and Waangenga Blanco join forces for the first time, inviting you to their homeland in the Torres Strait. As the tide comes in and out like years go by, modern day hunters, bright and infectious characters, transform domestic life from the salt water to the frozen section of the local I.B.I.S. supermarket store.
Compelling and profound, join Bangarra in this unforgettable night of dance.
