About

Mutti Mutti, Yorta Yorta and Nari Nari Songman Kutcha Edwards leads a powerful celebration of music and culture in Gugu Dindi Gunyah. Many Rivers. One Home. This world premiere brings together artists and performers from across the Kulin Nations in a landmark of contemporary ceremony grounded by ancient knowledge. A one night only event, it is the first performance to reopen the Ian Potter State Theatre.

Song Keepers, dancers and knowledge holders share the stage in a work shaped by rivers and songline.
