The Bogongs Song
Riverside Theatres presents
The Bogongs Song

15 Jan 2026 to 17 Jan 2026

When a brother and sister turn out the lights for the night, they are swept into a world of imagination — a portal to their Dreaming. Seeking an elusive Bogong Moth, they journey into an extraordinary world where Country shares its secrets. In this place, the past speaks through stars, trees, and grasses. Healing begins in the silence between breaths. 

The Bogong’s Song is a rich blend of storytelling, shadow puppetry, dance, and song created especially for primary-aged children. As the children open their hearts to the stories of their ancestors, we are all invited to experience connection to Country and discover that even the smallest creatures have a vital role to play.  

This brand-new work from Yolande Brown and Chenoa Deemal follows Bangarra’s award-winning Waru – journey of the small turtle, which enthralled more than 25,000 children last year.  

Featuring Benjin Maza and Tjilala Brown-Roberts, whose talents in dance, music, and spoken word bring this warm-hearted story to life—The Bogong’s Song invites young audiences to listen, reflect, and wonder.
