Description
Bonegilla The migrant's journey has been playing to sold out venues around Australia. The performance is a multimedia show that uses two screens on stage to play the filmed interviews of post war migrants from various European countries and their photos, home movies and documents. The musical soundtrack is played by a grand piano and violin live on stage and there is also immersive sound design. The stage is also decorated with migrant's own possessions that they brought over on the ship or used during their early life here in Australia and a sea of LED candles set the emotional mood of the performance.
You'll laugh. You'll cry. But most of all you'll be truly inspired by these gutsy pioneers who left everything behind and travelled to a country they knew nothing about.
The show runs for 80 minutes with no interval. During a speech at the end of the show, director and filmmaker, Simon Reich, will conduct a questions and answers session.
