Merrigong Theatre Company’s MERRIGONGX returns in 2025, kicking off with Kirli Saunders’ Yandha Djanbay (Go Slowly), at the Illawarra Performing Arts Centre from 20 to 22 February 2025.

Yandha Djanbay (Go Slowly) presents a powerful meditation on resilience, connection, and healing. Fusing language with land, and intimate storytelling with audiovisual projection, this work honours Kirli Saunders’ relationship with Country as both balm and blessing in times of hardship.

This performance is a celebration of her inherited strength, her identity as a Blak queer woman, and the wisdom found in slowing down, offering an immersive experience of renewal and connection.
