A flamenco show complete
with male and female
flamenco dancers and a
singer accompanied on guitar.
Tomas Arroquero seeks to
stretch the boundaries of the
flamenco form creating work
that explores sound, image,
and setting to capture an
elastic new essence of the
flamenco experience.
Reclaiming lost Australian
cultural territory Bush Gothic
perform tales of Australia’s dark
history re-told.
In 1924, the Italian film director
Angelo Drovetti embarked on an epic
8000-nautical mile voyage with his
movie camera. The result, Dall’Italia
All’Australia (From Italy to Australia),
is regarded by many as the most
comprehensive film ever made of a
migrant voyage. This black and white
SILENT FILM chronicles the voyage
of the passenger steam ship Regina
d’Italia (Queen of Italy). 4 piece band
I Viaggiatori will perform live Italian
folk music to accompany the film.
The Wikimen have
extraordinarily vast styles
of music in their huge
repertoire. You can expect
to hear Hawaiian blues,
pop, samba, western swing,
even Mills brothers songs
complete with heavenly
harmonies and exotica music
for your listening and dancing
pleasures.
tomasarroquero.com
Songs of criminal women and
convict men, treachery and
transportation, dragged out of
the songbooks, ripped apart, then
lovingly put back together as a
reminder that our history never
leaves us. Winner of prestigious
Golden Fiddle Award.

ARCHITECTURE
of loss
Part of

WODON on

The Cube wodonga
Loss – lost love, death or
separation – is a powerful
theme, expressed with
explosive physicality by
Mara Galeazzi, former
Principal Dancer and guest
artist of the Royal Ballet in
Tim Podesta’s Architecture
of Loss.
The wave of the hand from a
passer-by, which lifts up your
head to invite you to face the
day, an unexpected softness
from a stern-looking face,
your reflection in the mirror
(the proportions exactly as
you envisaged), a friendly
nod to your older neighbour.
A sense of place is a
fundamental value to people
everywhere – in every city, of
every culture, for all ages. At
least that is our instinctive
response.
Then emptiness, the
massive, unfriendly façade
of the building doesn’t invite
anyone in, and there is
nothing friendly about it. It
creates a dead zone in the
middle of what once was a
vital, connected streetscape.

CORANDERRK is about what
might have been.
At a Victorian Parliamentary
Inquiry in 1881, the men and
women of the Coranderrk
Aboriginal Reserve went
head-to-head with the
Aboriginal Protection
Board. Their goal was both
simple and revolutionary:
to be allowed to continue
the brilliant experiment in
self-determination they had
pioneered for themselves on
the scrap of country left to
them.
CORANDERRK recreates the
Inquiry. This is both great
theatre and great history.
It revives the voices of all
those, black and white, who
fought for a better pact
between the country’s oldest
and newest inhabitants.
This special production pays
tribute to the resilience and
adaptability of a people who
rose to the challenge despite
the odds, appropriating the
power of the written word to
make their own voices ring
loud and clear.
Lead actor Trevor Jamieson
is a widely recognised and
celebrated performer. He
played Uncle Max in the
ABC TV series Cleverman
and starred in both the ABC
TV mini-series and Sydney
Theatre Company national
tour of The Secret River.

You have to time it right.
If you follow the beat of the
city, your life never goes
off-key.
Three young people see
each other across a crowded
city station. They just
missed the train. Now they
wait. And think. They think
about home: Punjab, Delhi,
Hyderabad. And how they
just can’t seem to get the
city’s talam – its rhythm
– right. A sudden and
calamitous event changes
the lives of all three, and
their future in Australia.
A timely and vibrant new
work that’s both poignant
and full of humour, Melbourne
Talam puts contemporary
social issues centre stage.

Apna Ghar (My Home)
As a young man confronted by the
desperate vulnerability of India’s ‘Railway
Children’, Ravi Manas decided to dedicate
his life to working with them. Filmed
in the slums along India’s vast railway
network, Apna Gahr documents the
work of an inspirational man who has
unwavering faith in the possibility of
positive change.
A funny, touching, at times
gut-wrenching but above all,
life-changing documentary, at
the heart of Embrace is Taryn’s
story. How she went from a
body-hater to a body-lover. From
being devastated by her perceived
ugliness to proudly posing nude
for the whole world to see.
The film highlights the journey of Kevin
Hines, who at age 19 attempted to take
his life by jumping from the Golden Gate
Bridge. Today Kevin is a world-renowned
mental health advocate, motivational
speaker and author who travels the globe
spreading a message of hope, recovery
and wellness.
The film chronicles Kevin’s personal
journey and the ripple effect it has on
those who have been impacted by his
suicide attempt and his life’s work since.
In addition, the film highlights the stories
of individuals and families who are using
their personal tragedy to bring hope and
healing to others.

In 2014, Lana was
diagnosed with breast
cancer. In an unmissably
vibrant mix of storytelling,
rounded character work,
stand-up, silly dances,
ridiculous puppetry, and
animated projections
of her real imaging, she
has made a show that is
touching, real, raw and
hilarious, skilfully making
mutated cells the butt
of the joke. Cos cancer
seriously deserves to be
laughed out of town.
