The Other Side of Me translates into dance the true-life story of a young Aboriginal man, born in the 1960s in the Northern Territory, adopted by a white English family and raised in the United Kingdom. Drawing on a collection of personal letters and poems, it offers insights into the mind of a man re-evaluating his life and trying to come to terms with his First Nations Australian origins from the other side of the world. Choreographed by industry leader and Larrakia man Gary Lang, this international, cross-cultural collaboration with Northumbria University (UK) communicates a story of the Stolen Generations’ trauma and poses questions about relationships between country of origin, identity, adoption, the criminal justice system and psychological health.
