Led by acclaimed Queensland-based First Nations dance company, 'Karul Projects’ Thomas E.S. Kelly, five new short dance works by local First Nations artists will be embedded in the urban and natural landscape surrounding Bondi Pavilion in a promenade-style performance that will change the way you see the world around you.

Each installation, positioned along a path snaking from start to finish, serves as its own vibrant chapter, woven seamlessly into a singular storyline. Every iteration of the performance will incubate new works local to the area, so no presentation of The Walking Track will be the same as in its next location.  Be guided by the pulse of performance traversing the artistic landscape.

The Walking Track is Karul Project's major performance work that is an incubator for First Nations artists to develop their own performance piece under the guidance of Karul Project's Artistic Director Thomas E.S. Kelly.

Artists:

Vicki Van Hout
Beau Dean Riley Smith
Lucy May
Maddison Fraser
Thomas E.S. Kelly

Please note: 

Suitable for all ages.  Children under the age of 15 will require a parent or guardian to book a ticket to accompany them throughout the performance.

This is an outdoor performance which involves walking through the Bondi Beach precinct, with a return trip of approximately 1km. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns.  Please bring water, sunscreen, hats and wear shoes that are suitable for walking. 

As the Glenayr Street Festival is also happening on Saturday 11 October, parking will be limited.  For transport information, please visit Transport NSW.
