| Description | Who taught Ned Kelly to use chopsticks and why? What was the Queen really doing in the Tanami desert in 1954? How did Captain Cook arrive in the red centre and who are the Sons of Cook? All will be revealed when Tracks Dance Company divulges three untold Territory 'truths' in typical Territory style! The Cook, The Queen and The Kelly is Tracks' latest magical outdoor performance, set under the stars in beautiful Frog Hollow Park and featuring a cast of 30 dancers and actors. Worlds collide, cultures connect and folklore becomes fact in this comic celebration of twisted history! | |||||||
