Illuminating the connections between us

Spark your imaginations to light up and celebrate what brings us together!

Move, make and play with families and artists from Polyglot Theatre and Flow Festival Australia who invite us to ask, who are we? And how do we weave our stories?

Take part in shared drawing, experiment and play with simple and sensory materials to build new worlds and come together to explore through movement.

Catch the Light is a bi-lingual (Auslan and English) and bi-cultural look into how we see ourselves and how we relate to the world through community.
