NAISDA Dance College: Messenger
The critically acclaimed NAISDA Dance College celebrates the force of the female spirit with Messenger, its upcoming performance season at The Art House, Wyong from 4 to 7 July 2018.
Featuring works by some of Australia’s leading choreographers, Messenger has already garnered stellar reviews and comprises four evening performances, two sold-out school matinee performances and a program of associated school workshops. Taking inspiration from the 2018 NAIDOC theme, ‘Because of her, we can!’, Messenger proudly acknowledges our mothers, grandmothers, aunties, sisters and daughters as an important presence in our lives. Messenger speaks to the force of the female spirit as she guides us to come together as a community to say, ‘Our Art is powerful, our identity is strong, and we affirm our commitment to a culturally rich and diverse society for future generations’. Audiences will enjoy an inspiring evening of dynamic dance including cultural Yolngu dances from the Dätiwuy Clan in North East Arnhem Land. The program will also feature lyrical contemporary work by notable guest choreographer, and NAISDA graduate, Sani Townson, inspired by his Torres Strait Islander heritage.
