Tracker: In Conversation

47 minutes

Sydney Festival Closed Captions   Sydney Festival AUSLAN

Hear from the creators of TRACKER & family members of the great Uncle Alec 'Tracker' Riley

What was Uncle Alec Riley’s story, and why is his legacy so important – not only to his family and the Wiradjuri nation, but to all Australians? How do we reclaim storytelling in Australia, and resolve the tensions between recorded history and lived experiences? And how can we evolve practices of contemporary dance, ceremony and dance dramaturgy to enhance our storytelling?

Watch an engrossing discussion hosted by Emily McDaniel (Director First Nations at the Powerhouse Museum) with guests Daniel Riley, Amy Sole and Jonathan Jones (creators of Tracker), along with Aunty Ann and Aunty Shirley (granddaughters of Uncle Alec Riley, the tracker who inspired the work).
