Spirits of the Red Sand

Journey from Aboriginal Dreamtime to the 1800’s through this powerful, open-air live theatre show. Based on true events, Spirits of the Red Sand brings to life a powerful, emotive narrative that follows three Aboriginal brothers dealing with the clashing cultures and beliefs of the 19th century.

Launched in 2017, this first-of-its kind experience is a true cultural awakening that will open your eyes to the history, beauty and vibrancy of the Aboriginal people.

The live theatre experience is a roving, immersive theatre – guests move from scene to scene and enjoy a range of indigenous song and dance. Told by Jarrah, the only surviving member of three Aboriginal brothers, the show is set within a real 19th-Century Australian town complete with Church, Pub and indigenous village.

The story of Spirits of the Red Sand is based on true events and authentic elements of Aboriginal culture. Many of our characters have been inspired by real people living in 1800’s Australia. All of our Aboriginal actors are direct descendants of Australian Aboriginal mobs – their families experienced many of the events they bring to life in the show.

The theatre is followed by a delicious 3 course dinner infused with indigenous flavours. You’ll enjoy:

• Piping hot damper with dipping oils and bush dukkah to start
• Tasting skewer of kangaroo, crocodile and emu with roast vegetables
• Hearty Australian-style char-grilled buffet with a selection of beef, lamb, chicken cooked to perfection and infused with our signature bush rub accompanied by baked potatoes, seasonal salads, winter vegetables
• Indigenous infused chutney, gravy, sour cream
• Lemon Myrtle cheesecake or Australian Pavlova
• Tropical fresh fruit salad with fresh whipped cream

Finally, enjoy a meet and greet of cast and crew. 

This is a completely immersive and interactive evening that the whole family will enjoy.
