A girl’s journey between two cultures.

Inspired by a young girl’s journey between two cultures, Mathinna traces the history of a young Aboriginal girl removed from her traditional life, adopted into Western Colonial society to be ultimately returned to the fragments of her original heritage.

Mathinna became the archetype of the ‘stolen child’ and, in this brand new work,
Bangarra Dance Theatre recreates her powerful story of vulnerability and searching
in an era of confusion and intolerance.

“If you get one night at the theatre, see this show Mathinna. If you get two nights, see it again.”
The Age

“The theatrical strength of the dance and its ideas make Mathinna a benchmark in Bangarra’s repertoire.”
The Sydney Morning Herald
