Song Circle | EverNow 2023

Bring the whole family to this free, immersive Noongar celebration.

Over five nights in Supreme Court Gardens, Song Circle surrounds you with music, dance and light. Experience this stunning performance from all sides as singers and instrumentalists perform songs in Noongar language reflecting on animals and environments from Perth through the Great Southern to Esperance, as dancers respond to the music on a ring of sand surrounding the stage.

Song Circle is a newly imagined Noongar-led futurescape brought to you by Boomerang & Spear, the extraordinary team behind Perth Festival 2022’s Noongar Wonderland. Theatrically brought to life by lauded director Kylie Bracknell (Director of Hecate, Fist of Fury Noongar Daa and co-director of Noongar Wonderland), songs emerge from the Restoring on-Country Performance research of Professor Clint Bracknell. 

Performances of Song Circle feature variable casts of singers and dancers, including the band Maatakitj, Kylie Bracknell, Trevor Ryan, Rubeun Yorkshire, Ebony McGuire, Bobbi Henry, Jack Collard, Janine Oxenham and Rachel Collard.
