A NEW WORK BY STEPHEN PAGE

"Page invokes the spirit of the land and lets it be a place of timeless respite and redemption" The Australian, 2 June 2008

Inspired by a young girl's journey between two cultures, Mathinna traces the life of a young Tasmanian Aboriginal girl removed from her traditional life and adopted into western colonial society only to be ultimately returned to the fragments of her original heritage.
Bangarra Dance Theatre continues to resonate world-wide as an acclaimed contemporary dance company of unique style committed to the traditions of Indigenous culture. Celebrated from New York and London to outback Australia, Bangarra presents an exciting world premiere certain to remain with you long after you leave the theatre.

For more information, please visit the Mathinna blog
