Join artists Jacqui Stockdale (visual artist), Yumi Umiumare (choreographer), Emma Bathgate (vocalist) and Chelle Destefano (Deaf performer and artist) for an Auslan interpreted creative expression workshop which playfully interprets the Ned Kelly gang.
Explore mask and costume making, movement and voice, and expressions of identity through gesture and cross-dressing. The workshop incorporates Japanese Butoh and Auslan sign language. This inclusive workshop will culminate in a public performance, The Last Hoorah.
These workshops are presented as part of the Benalla Festival—celebrating Our Community, Our Future. The program has been supported by The Village Festival, with accessibility advice through Vitae Veritas. We acknowledge the support of Inland Rail for this project.
