OCTOBER 3-5, 2019
AKI STUDIO

A FORCE MAJEURE PRODUCTION (AUSTRALIA) IN COLLABORATION WITH FRIDAY CREEATIONS AND AANMITAAGZI

As part of CAMINOS 2019, Native Earth presents Mura Buai (Everyone, Everyone), co-directed by award-winning Torres Strait Islander artist Ghenoa Gela and Artistic Director of Force Majeuere Danielle Micich.

Mura Buai (Everyone, Everyone) features Torres Strait Islander performers in collaboration with local Indigenous performers from Turtle Island, creating a captivating work that uses stories and movement inspired by traditional practices, contemporary dance and sport. From this playful choreographed-yet-improvised environment come relationships and meaning that shift and change depending on your perspective. A thoughtful work infused with a sense of the past, this powerful international collaborative piece explores strength, tradition and identity.

This collaborative journey begins at the Big Medicine Studio to the National Arts Centre to Toronto for final showings at Aki Studio.
