Yuldea awakens the earth and sky worlds to tell the story of the Anangu people of the Great Victorian Desert.

This major new work explores the moment traditional life collided with the industrial ambition of a growing nation. In 1917, the two halves of the Transcontinental Railway met at the precious water soak on the edge of the Nullarbor, Yuldi Kapi.

Yuldea features original music by Leon Rodgers and guest composers, the multi-award-winning electronic pop duo, Electric Fields. Designers Elizabeth Gadsby (Set), Jennifer Irwin (Costume) and Karen Norris (Lighting) create a desert world on stage.

Bangarra Dance Theatre is a modern dance company unlike any other…remarkably imaginative and richly varied.
