A new production by Windmill and Big hART in association with Adelaide Festival Centre's Australian Stories program Nyuntu Ngali [You We Two] by Scott Rankin
Suitable for age 12+.
A new production by Windmill and Big hART in association with Adelaide Festival Centre's Australian Stories Program.
It is the 22nd century in central Australia. Everyday life is basic in this future world. The post climate change environment demands that skills for living return to the way they were for thousands of years before that fast-paced period of just 10 generations, which resulted in global warming and the near destruction of the planet.
Eva and Roam have fallen in love and they face a life and death predicament as they run from an unseen enemy, because of their wrong-skin marriage.
This moving and powerful story of survival in both English and Pitjanjatjara is interspersed with sand storytelling, choreography, video art, shadow play, weaving and a highly atmospheric musical score.
Nyuntu Ngali is a collaboration between Windmill and the renowned Big hART, which also presented Ngapartji Ngapartji - a sell-out success at the 2007 Adelaide Cabaret Festival.
