WOMEN OF THE RIVERINA by Voices of Women

Director Lliane Clarke with Saasha McMillan and Haya Arzidin

Who are the Women of the Riverina? This new work chronicles the heartfelt moments, tragic past, the truth, the connection and the denial of women living in this region today, 2024. It celebrates diversity and points of connection - from country women, truck driving women, Aboriginal women, women immigrants, young women and old. At a time in our nation’s healing and recovery from the divided Referendum outcome, it builds a picture of how we got here, and points some way to where we go next.

After 2023’s triumphant Embellishment, the Voices of Women team are returning to KXT.

Building on three years of projects in the Riverina (Wagga – Albury) Voices of Women is collecting monologues from a cross-cultural perspective from women of all ages. The process collaborated with Aboriginal Land Council, Curious Rabbit arts hub for LGBTQI artists, Eastern Riverina Arts, WaggaGallery, Booranga Writers in Wagga.
