SANDSONG Comes to ASB Waterfront Theatre in March
Performances are 15-18 March 2023.
An Australian national treasure, Bangarra is one of the most respected First Nations companies on the planet.
SandSong is a powerful, deeply moving story, drawing on stories, knowledge and memories of past to create a new narrative for Indigenous futures.
Created in consultation with Wangkatjungka/Walmajarri Elders from the Kimberley and Great Sandy Desert regions, it presents a story of resilience and connection that is both specific and widely resonant - an ambitious, adroitly executed performance that equally "celebrates" and "pulls no punches" (Limelight).
This work honours the legacy of Ningali Josie Lawford-Wolf (1967-2019) and her family - past, present and future.

What did our critic think of HOME, I'M DARLING at Howick Little Theatre? Imaginatively directed with an eye for detail by Carleena Walsh, this award-winning play is thought-provoking and effectively executed by a very talented cast and creative team. Winner of the 2019 Olivier Award for Best New Comedy, the play was first performed in 2018 by A Theatr Clwyd and the National Theatre, London. But don't be fooled by its comic disguise, this is a play which will not only entertain, it will also make you think.
Auckland Theatre Company has begun its 30th anniversary year with a heartwarming play with all the great elements of top-class entertainment underpinned by deeper more gripping issues of trauma, loss, healing and the strength of community.
