| Description | A powerful and moving dance duet exploring identity, injustice and otherness. The Other Side of Me brings to life the true story of a young Aboriginal man, born in the NT but raised in the UK by his adoptive white English family. This evocative international, cross-cultural collaboration with Northumbria University (UK), communicates a story of the Stolen Generations’ trauma and poses questions about relationships between Country (of origin, of adoption) and cultural and personal dispossession. | |||||||
