How on earth do we navigate our rapidly changing world? What are the solutions to the multitude of issues we are now facing? Will enough of us rise up to the challenges and provide the leadership we seek for the future?
Byron Youth Theatre’s latest original production How on Earth ( Part 2) funded by Country Arts Support Program Regional Arts NSW, Northern Rivers Community Foundation and NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment, and supported by Arts Northern Rivers,the Joyality Project and the Brunswick Picture House, takes the audience on an intriguing journey exploring those hard to face questions! Set in a possible, not too distant future, an inspired young person and her friends seek to learn new ways of being from a parallel world to help save themselves and their home planet, but will it work? Featuring original music score, projection compilation and lighting by local professional youth and older artists as well as some kindly donated music from musicians overseas!!
We wish to recognise the generations of the local Aboriginal people of the Bundjalung Nation who have lived in and derived their physical and spiritual needs from the forests, rivers, lakes and streams of this beautiful valley over many thousands of years as the traditional owners and custodians of these lands
