BlakDance bring two bold dance works to Perth next week!

⭐️ The Other Side of Me by Gary Lang NT Dance Company ⭐️
State Theatre Centre 30 April - 2 May

Gary Lang’s The Other Side of Me shares a poignant new angle on Stolen Generations - one young man adopted and raised in a small UK village. Stranded between two families, two countries and two cultures, this delicate duet explores colonisation’s grey areas, its wide ranging destructive impact for all involved. It offers its audience the opportunity to experience the singing of a young man's spirit home.

Book now ➡️ https://www.artsculturetrust.wa.gov.au/venues/state-theatre-centre-of-wa/whats-on/the-other-side-of-me

⭐️ SILENCE by Karul Projects ⭐️
His Majesty’s Theatre 1 - 2 May

The world’s oldest continuous living culture on stage at Perth’s oldest performing arts theatre (The Maj)!… SILENCE by Karul Projects, pulls the Treaty conversation out from under the rug and slams it back on the table. With thrashing live drumming and a raw aesthetic, Thomas E.S. Kelly combines intimate storytelling with significant moments in Australian history bringing an unresolved conversation to a new generation. Funny, irreverent and reverberating with power… if you think you know Australian contemporary dance, you haven’t seen SILENCE.
