INFO:
Whispers of this Wik Woman is a autobiographical play about a proud woman’s life in the remote Western Cape York of Queensland, and her teachings and loyalty to her ancestors and Country. The set is inspired by the landscape in which the play takes place, and underlines the importance of preserving our Country’s beautiful natural heritage. The circular floor cloth, a tribute to the style of the beautifully hand woven baskets of the Cape York region, symbolises the inner spirit and cyclic nature of life.
