Following their recent critical and box office smash Bennelong, Bangarra is back in Sydney in November with a season of homegrown stories. ONES COUNTRY – the spine of our stories plays at Carriageworks from 24 November – 2 December.

The Artistic Director of Bangarra, Stephen Page, said there was a myriad of stories to be unearthed from within the company.

 “It’s incredible to see original, authentic Australian stories coming from the dancers; their stories, their heritage, their land inspires the stories we tell,” explains Page.

 “To see Djakapurra working in our studios again and passing on his knowledge to the next generation, it’s a beautiful continuation of our songline and shows how strong our connection to culture is.”
