Ardna Our Land

Ardna

Presented by Darebin Arts Speakeasy as part of Melbourne Fringe Festival

ARDNA: OUR LAND is an innovative new collaboration between Aseel Tayah and respected Yorta Yorta theatre maker Jason Tamiru for children 5 years and older, that uses Aboriginal and Middle Eastern dance, songs and storytelling to explore our connection to physical land. ARDNA is a beautiful, tactile experience for children that takes place in an open indoor/outdoor space that is transformed into an island of bushland.
