In 2013, internationally acclaimed Bangarra Dance Theatre presents Blak. Choreographed by Artistic Director Stephen Page and emerging choreographer and dancer Daniel Riley McKinley, Blak places culture at the heart of our existence. It reaffirms the powerful experiences of rites of passage for young people as they transition to adulthood. By embracing their responsibilities, these young people become a critical link in the songlines that connect our future with our ancient past.
Based on the myriad of stories told by Bangarra's young artists, their personal appreciation for traditional customs and practices drives the central themes of Blak. Culture, language and survival are intrinsically linked in the urban world of changing social behaviours. Join Bangarra, as cultural messengers, to spend time 'on country' in a night of enthralling contemporary Indigenous dance theatre.
Bringing together a talented group of creative artists Blak has evocative music by David Page and Paul Mac and powerful design with sets by Jacob Nash, costumes by Luke Ede and lighting by Matt Cox.
