On Wednesday the 4th of September, students in year 8 Drama travelled to The Arts Centre in Melbourne to partake in a character building workshop focused on character within improvisation and then to watch the performance of Horizon by Bangarra Dance Theatre.

In their first mainstage cross-cultural collaboration, leading Māori choreographer and Arts Laureate Moss Te Ururangi Patterson joins beloved Bangarra alumna Deborah Brown. Together they guide their award-winning ensemble in stories that honour their mother countries and the spirit that calls them home.

Come explore the cultural forces that bind us together, across oceans and eons. Experience the resilience of the First Peoples of the Oceania region, that extends across the continent now known as Australia, the Torres Strait Islands and Aotearoa, our southern neighbour.

There is a place between sea and sky — a sacred realm, where the sun rises and falls and the light is new.
