The earth rewilded, humanity reimagined.A great human howl for the damage done to earth, this world premiere from acclaimed dance theatre company Marrugeku brings a haunting speculative future to life.
Envisioned in dialogue with Yawuru and Bardi custodians, choreographer Dalisa Pigram and director Rachel Swain’s latest work draws on a powerhouse ensemble of Indigenous and settler-diasporic performers from Australia, South East Asia and Melanesia to question the cost of survival.
Set in a time of great middens and drowned Country, Ngurragabu [from the last ight/next/tomorrow] catapults audiences into visual artist Abdul-Rahman Abdullah’s monumental petrified mangrove forest, inspired by past-future archipelagos connecting northern Australia to east Indonesia.
Techno-futurist music, immersive projections and a stunning set create a world unlike any other, where every movement asks how we might live differently with one another – and with the planet.
Urgent without losing hope, Ngurragabu rewilds the future as a place of radical possibility.
Ngurragabu... is part of the Dance Reflections by Van Cleef and Arpels program.
