Suara coming to Bankstown Arts Centre these Autumn Holidays!

Come and experience Suara Dance’s Performance-workshop show that has toured nationally to schools around the country. The performers take participants on a journey through Indonesia introducing song, dance and theatre traditions from across the archipelago, including genres from Java, Bali and Sumatra.

Audience participation is encouraged with Randai - based on martial arts from West Sumatra, and a hands-on body percussion workshop for the whole audience from Aceh, North Sumatra. These highly rhythmic dances, accompanied by drumming and distinctive chanted melodies, are fun and fulfilling. Individuals feel like they belong within a group and in turn the group feels like a community, boosting self-esteem and confidence.

Body percussion is a fun, communal way of learning and practicing RHYTHMS! The development of musical rhythm, motor coordination and ensemble skills is essential for growing brains and bodies!

We can’t wait to share our story with you!

With thanks for support from Australia Indonesia Association and Bankstown Arts Centre.
