Ngapartji Ngapartji

Ngapartji Ngapartji - I give you something, you give me something - is a long term multi-layered language based arts project.

Ngapartji Ngapartji draws on the language and international experiences of the Central Australian desert people (Spinifex) for a unique Festival experience. Audiences are invited to learn elements of Pitjantjatjara language to have a deeper experience of the theatrical production. The performance weaves together narratives from the Spinifex People - one of the oldest nations on earth, with continuous ties to their land for 50000 years – with other young and powerful nations from the twentieth century.
