DANCING PLACE: CORHANWARRABUL
COMING SOON!
Dancing Place: Corhanwarrabul is a project curated by Gretel Taylor funded by a Yarra Ranges Community Grant, scheduled for Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th October, 2020. (We are planning that this will go ahead, as an outdoor program, with COVID-safe restrictions, including social distancing and strict audience capacity.)
Dancing Place: Corhanwarrabul will bring community members and visitors to sites of Mt Dandenong and Mt Corhanwarrabul through performance and embodied participation. With a place consciousness deeply grounded in Indigenous presence, the program will introduce audiences to diverse contemporary modes of performance in relation to place. The program includes a Welcome to Country, walks to witness live site-responsive performances along forest tracks, environmental dance and Wurundjeri dance workshops for children, and a ‘Body Weather’ research walk.
It features leading local and Melbourne-based artists and cultural leaders, Murrundindi, Mandy Nicholson and Djirri Djirri Dancers, Gulsen Ozer, Dani-Ela Kayler, Tammy Wong-Hulbert, Marnie Badham, Janette Hoe, Vivienne Rogis, Gretel Taylor and Environmental Performance Authority.
