In My Skin
In My Skin, which explores issues of racism and prejudice was created in response to youth and community audiences requests after our previous productions Here Today and Gone Tomorrow. It’s a hot topic not only in Australia but world wide with increase awareness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander issues, asylum seekers, refugees and right wing groups and organisations inciting white supremacy.
In My Skin was funded by Country Arts Support Program Regional Arts NSW with financially support by Byron Council and a wonderful donation from Rotary Byron Bay. BYT wish to express our deep gratitude to these organisations as well as Byron Theatre, Drill Hall Theatre Company and Byron Youth Service.
The production incorporated 3D graphic projections interspersed between stylised dramatic scenes to transport the audience into a new future World where no culture or practices exists.
The Company also used song and choreographed dance to create a powerful, poignant production which raised many questions and hopefully galvanised audiences to take more action to create a more harmonious society.
