Synopsis
Under the star-illuminated skies of the Torres Strait, a green turtle navigates her way back to the beach where she was born. The season has started, the turtles are returning to nest, and soon the island will welcome a new generation of hatchlings – amongst them, our small turtle friend, Migi!
In Bangarra’s first dedicated work for children, join our heroine Migi as she undertakes a journey of discovery and survival. A contemporary saltwater Lagaw Kazil (Island Children) story inspired by the totemic system of the green turtle,
Waru – journey of the small turtle
is an interactive and immersive introduction to Torres Strait Islander culture and dance for 3–7-year-olds, premiering at Bangarra’s newly renovated home in Walsh Bay.
Created by Stephen Page, together with Hunter Page-Lochard and Bangarra alumni Dancers and Choreographers Sani Townson and Elma Kris,
Waru
provides teachers, parents and care-givers with a unique opportunity to open up conversations about climate change, caring for the environment and the traditional cultural values of respect and reciprocity.
Inspired in part by
Turtle
(
Corroboree,
2001), choreographed by Stephen Page, Peggy Misi and Elma Kris.
