Come explore the cultural forces that bind us together, across oceans and eons. From two of the world’s great First Nations comes a new work, The Light Inside. Some call it a feeling, some call it the mother spirit. It’s the place where sea meets sky, the horizon we all look to, the compass that guides us home.
In Bangarra’s first mainstage cross-cultural collaboration, leading Māori choreographer and Arts Laureate Moss Te Ururangi Patterson joins beloved Bangarra alumna Deborah Brown. Together they guide Bangarra’s award-winning ensemble in stories that honour their mother countries and the spirit that calls them home.
Experience the resilience of the First Peoples of the Oceania region, that extends across the continent now known as Australia, the Torres Strait Islands and Aotearoa, our southern neighbour.
The Light Inside is presented by the Geelong Arts Centre and Bangarra Dance Theatre. Book your tickets now for performances on Friday 10 October or Saturday 11 October, 2025.
