Wesley Enoch honours the elders of First Nations performing arts

Release Date:


Guest host Wesley Enoch meets three icons of First Nations performing arts. Roxanne McDonald's stage career began more than 30 years ago when she saw an audition flyer for a play based on the poetry of Oodgeroo Noonuccal. She has since graced some of Australia's biggest stages.Also, we meet Noongar elder Richard Walley, who has made enormous contributions to Australian performing arts, from directing and acting in a range of new theatre works to twice performing for Queen Elizabeth II, and we learn about Con Colleano, a tightrope walker known as the Wizard of the Wire. Under the big top, he claimed Spanish ancestry, but Con was a Kamilaroi man, born and raised on Bundjalung country.
