Bangarra Dance
Theatre's work Bush is a lush and hypnotic
celebration of beauty, ritual and music inspired by the
Aboriginal Dreamtime creation stories of Arnhem Land
in Northern Australia.
From the last breath of sunset to
the first finger-light of dawn, we enter a mysterious
and secret space to witness nature's sacred poetry-
reptilian creatures slither from dark caves, a moth
emerges from its cocoon, the land erupts pushing up
mountains and carving waterholes - the world is being
born.
Choreographed by Artistic Director Stephen
Page and Frances
Rings, Bush is a spellbinding work
that captures the soul of this extraordinary company.
Bush was first performed
in 2003 in Brisbane, Australia. It has since then completed
sell out tours of Sydney, Melbourne, New York and Washington.
