Garrmalang – Gary Lang NT Dance Company – The OTher Side of Me

An aching dance duet of a man’s struggle with identity, loss and otherness and the redemptive beauty of singing his spirit home.

Following the success of their 2022 show Waŋa and after a well received premiere at Darwin Entertainment Centre as part of Darwin Festival last year, Gary Lang NT Dance Company bring back this powerful and moving dance duet that navigates the limits of physical expression. Choreographed by Gary Lang, this international, cross-cultural collaboration with Northumbria University (UK) communicates a story of the Stolen Generations’ trauma. With care and compassion, it poses questions about relationships between country of origin, identity, adoption, the criminal justice system and psychological health.
