Prepare to be captivated by Arterial, the award-winning contemporary circus production from Na Djinang Circus, where breathtaking acrobatics, acro-dance and powerful First Nations storytelling come together in an unforgettable theatrical experience at RPAC's Concert Hall on Friday, July 17.
Celebrating what it means to be First People - the lifeblood of this country - Arterial explores the ancient connections that bind First Nations people together through bloodlines, culture and Country, while reflecting on the lasting impacts of colonisation.
Performed by four extraordinary artists, the production weaves together stunning physical feats with deep emotional storytelling, creating a captivating performance that is both exhilarating and heartfelt.
Accompanied by an immersive original score from Mpwarnte sound designer Jason Renehan, Arterial reveals the unseen bonds between body, land and spirit in a way that is both intimate and visually striking.
Described by Dancers Choice as "a reminder of the beauty and power of human connection in a world that often seems to be tearing itself apart," the performance invites audiences to reflect on identity, belonging and the enduring strength of connection.
Powerful, moving and visually spectacular, Arterial is a must-see performance that will leave a lasting impression long after the final bow.
