Bangarra Dance Theatre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bangarra Dance Theatre is an Indigenous Australian contemporary dance company. The company was founded in 1989 as a development of NAISDA, and since 1991 Stephen Page has been the artistic director. The group's first full length show Praying Mantis Dreaming was produced in 1992, and 11 productions have followed. All have been successful within Australia and some have toured the United States and the United Kingdom. The group also made significant contributions to the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2000 Olympics.
