Djuki-Mala

Australia

Ingenious cross-cultural fusion places Arnhem Land traditional dance beside pop culture icons, from Gene Kelly’s Singin’ in the Rain to hip-hop and breakdance. Six-man troupe Djuki Mala (formerly known as The Chooky Dancers) offers a new type of indigenous physical theatre, with energetic dance embellished by comedy and clowning to tell new stories about Yolngu culture.

Presented with the generous assistance of Maureen Ritchie.
