NAISDA will present Echoing the Future, a powerful new performance season which is the culmination of a year’s work, at Carriageworks in Sydney from November 20-22.
This evocative new work offers a Foreseeing; a glimpse of what tomorrow may hold, shaped by the choices we make today.
“Through movement, song and story, Echoing the Future calls on audiences to consider our deep inherited connection to Country and ancestral knowledge, and the renewal of new generations who carry First Nations cultures forward,” a spokesperson said.
“Featuring contemporary dance works woven with song, movement and culture from Aotearoa, Wailwan Country and the Dätiwuy Clan from North East Arnhem Land, this new work unites global First Nations perspectives under the direction of Charles Koroneho.”
Koroneho is a graduate of the New Zealand School of Dance and Elam School of Fine Arts.
He has created works, collaborated and performed with Te Toki Haruru, MAU, Royal New Zealand Ballet Company, Guillermo Gomez-Pena and La Pocha Nostra, touring extensively in the Pacific region, Europe and North America.
“NAISDA provides an incredible context where I can contribute ideas about the future practices of Indigenous dance,” he said.
“I have accepted this exciting invitation to work and collaborate with NAISDA’s Developing Artists.
“One of the things that I think is really important about this is the context of intercultural exchange and its emphasis on Indigenous creativity.
“The most important thing about my work is to share an understanding of how to contribute to the development of Indigenous creativity, particularly within the context of a global dance perspective.”
Performed by NAISDA’s exceptional 2025 Developing and Practising Artists, Echoing the Future brings today’s stories to life, envisioning and shaping what is yet to unfold.
