Bloodland, Sydney Theatre Company's wonderful showcase of drama, dance and song telling.

Sydney Theatre Company, Adelaide Festival and Allens Arthur Robinson in association with Bangarra Dance Theatre present
Bloodland

Concept by Stephen Page
Story by Kathy Balngayngu Marika, Stephen Page and Wayne Blair
Written by Wayne Blair

Stephen Page, Artistic Director of Bangarra Dance Theatre and award-winning choreographer, collaborates with writer and actor Wayne Blair on this landmark work.

From three photographs that formed the seed of an idea, Stephen and Wayne have been developing this original work for over a year, collaborating with local storytellers in Arnhem Land. A groundbreaking piece of theatre, Bloodland examines the classic theme of forbidden love, while also exploring issues of black-on-black conflict, and the challenges of observing traditional lore in a community permeated by Western culture.

Featuring an Indigenous cast of twelve including established urban actors as well as traditional Yolngu storytellers, the production fuses traditional languages and Pidgin English as well as dance and song to tell the story. Bloodland promises to be a unique work of scale and cultural significance.
