Courthouse Youth Arts Centre, with Wathaurong Aboriginal Co-operative, presents a major production
This production represents the next chapter in the story. The performance will present the voices of young Aboriginal people and be a celebration of youth and Aboriginal culture.
Urgent is a powerful story of loss and rediscovery about three young women who discover they’re sisters. This performance will provide a place for young people to begin the next chapter of
Urgent, a novel which discusses
Aboriginal health, the Stolen Generations and Reconciliation. It will present the voices of young Aboriginal people and be a celebration of youth and Aboriginal culture.
Director Julia Torpey is one of the four original authors of the novel. She has taken this inspiring story and, with the support of the Courthouse Youth Arts Centre and Wathaurong Aboriginal Co-operative, has created a powerful yet subtle piece of theatre, designed to encourage the audience to question their views on Reconciliation and the human tragedy of the Stolen Generations and to consider for a moment how they would react if placed in this situation. This piece aims to project young people’s voices and to get at the core of what really is important to them as their future lives unfold.
