Kangaroo Stew
You gonna sell your soul for a fist full of diamonds?
David's family think he's come home for the anniversary of his Dad's death. But he's got another reason to return home; he's working to broker a deal with a mining company to dig up his own sacred land and hopefully get them all out of poverty forever.
To complicate matters, the whole family are being visited by a persistent ghost who has something to settle before it can move on.
Kangaroo Stew is a lively and controversial contribution to the modern Aboriginal theatre movement that gives insight into the life of a modern Aboriginal family living with the mining economy. There will be love, punch-ups, singing, and of course, the spirits of ancestors past.
