Bunyi Bunyi Bumi
 

Bunjil Place, in association with BlakDance, Asia TOPA and Arts Centre Melbourne, is thrilled to present the groundbreaking new commission Bunyi Bunyi Bumi at the Bunjil Place Studio from Thursday 20 to Sunday 23 February 2025.

Bunyi Bunyi Bumi replaces tired narratives of trade and Empire with truth, resistance, and resilience. Thrumming with dance, body percussion, syncopated rhythms, and stunning visuals, the performance unites Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander, Tamil and Indonesian artists in a joyous rebuke of colonial amnesia.

This contemporary work uses immersive choreography to celebrate the interconnectedness of cultures.

    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
  • The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
