Yirra Yaarnz at The Blue Room Theatre

“There were many sightings of the River Boys, until one day they ran into the darkness and were never seen again.”

Yirra Yaarnz is a collection of monologues from emerging Western Australian Aboriginal playwrights responding to the broad theme of ‘The River’. Mentored by award-winning playwright Hellie Turner through Yirra Yaakin’s Writers’ Group, this presentation is created by emerging producer Eva Mullaley.

Yirra Yaarnz celebrates NAIDOC with a thought-provoking season of new works focused around the mythology and metaphors of the river.
