starring Rachael Maza, Irma Woods & Abigail Ware
From Yarloop on a train ride, six kids all in tow. From a house made of timber, real beds and a stove, to a camp made of tins, sticks and bags.
When the Welfare came sniffin around, wanting to take the kids away, their Mum took the hard road and left her house and community to keep her family together. Almost fifty years later, her three daughters Dot, Ethel and Judith have told a story of the love and survival of a very special family.
Following the incredible success of SOLID, CRUEL WILD WOMAN and KING HIT, Yirra Yaakin Noongar Theatre brings you the world premiere of ALIWA (Look out!). Directed by Lynette Narkle, Australia's most respected indigenous theatre artist, and written by new talent Dallas Winmar, ALIWA is an inspiring true story of survival and triumph.
Yirra Yaakin, acclaimed as a 'dominant voice in Aboriginal theatre', once again makes history with this unique celebration of three generations of indigenous women.
