Bangarra’s electrifying double bill, Walkabout, traces an extraordinary history of indigenous struggle and survival from the early missions and stations of outback Australia to the neon soaked streets of our modern day cities.
A passionate and revealing work featuring acclaimed actress, Ningali Lawford, Walkabout proves once again why this unique company has gained such immense popularity and respect worldwide.
Artistic Director Stephen Page and leading dancer, Frances Rings, craft a work of raw beauty that explores the tensions between the spiritual and social forces that shape indigenous life. Walkabout is Bangarra at its most evocative and engaging.
