Kultar Ahluwalia’s world premiere of this poignantly earnest autobiographical show supports his latest musical release of the same name, The Mixed-Race Tape. Ahluwalia shines a light on the multiculturalism of his heritage, Punjabi Sikh on his father’s side and Irish Catholic on his mother’s, tracking through both his own journey and that of his family. Along the way he comes to terms with his identity and dismantles the mask of ego that most MCs can get caught wearing.

Mulka Yata/The Knowledge of Place is an immersively reverent homage to the championing of the Adnyamathanha culture and landscape featuring work spanning four generations of traditional wood carvers in Kristian Coulthard, Clem Coulthard, Ted Coulthard and Winnie Ryan. In the Adnyamathanha language, “Adnya” means rock and “Mathanha” means people, making the custodians of the Ikara-Flinders Ranges “the people of the rocks”.

The Akram Khan Company’s re-imagining of Kipling’s Jungle Book seeks to strip the old-world lens of colonisation from the source and instead focuses on the chaos of climate change through the experiences of Mowgli.
Mowgli is stranded and trapped by the circumstances of the chaotic ecosystem that humans have deformed and finds herself making friends with the animals that have overtaken the infrastructure of the city, which has been ravaged by extreme weather.

The stories that are showcased in this performance are older than every man-made structure known to us. This fact inspired award-winning and critically acclaimed artist Jacob Boehme, of Kaurna and Narungga nations, to showcase these ancient tales, bringing together the old ways with new methods of storytelling. However, it takes a community to protect, preserve and empower these stories of creation, and this is reflected in Guuranda.

By Kyron Weetra Published 06 Feb 2024 Guuranda
Her Majesty’s Theatre, Kaurna Yerta, until 3 March
Created by a collection of First Nations Artists and spearheaded by Jacob Boehme, Guuranda is an epic opera showcasing the ‘Everywhen’ stories of the Narungga people. As a proud Narungga man I am particularly excited to see this championing of culture. The word 'Guuranda' is what Narungga people call their homeland, what westerners call the Yorke Peninsula.

It is my perpetual privilege to acknowledge the beautiful land of the Kaurna people. I am in awe of and hold the utmost respect for the relationships, beliefs and customs that have been practised in this country since time immemorial. I pay my respects to the Elders, past and present who preserved culture and paved the path. I acknowledge the ongoing and lived connection that First Nations people have to country and to culture.

Ember and the Island of Lost Creatures follows the adventures of a young and very tiny child seeking a place to fit in, quite literally. Ember is not just small for a human. Ember is small compared to most leaves, rocks and birds. This is depicted when Ember is jumping from leaf to leaf to get a look at a suburban school filled with ‘giants’ and he ends up being quizzed by a spider three times his size.
