Richard Walley

Join Perth Symphony Orchestra for a powerful and moving celebration of Dr Richard Walley OAM, Noongar artist, musician, statesman, and cultural trailblazer.

From his ‘bush hard’ upbringing near Pinjarra to sharing Noongar culture on world stages, Richard’s extraordinary life is brought to the stage through music, imagery, and storytelling in a performance that is both intimate and unforgettable.

Featuring chamber musicians and narration from Richard and his children, this is a rare opportunity to witness the story of a living legend, told in his own words, on his own terms.

“It’s a profound honour to share Richard’s story,” says Creative Director Fiona Campbell OAM. “He’s a State Living Treasure for good reason, and audiences will be astonished by the depth, humour, and heart of his journey.”

Part of PSO’s WA Stories series, honouring the icons who helped shape our state.
