Who Speaks For Me?

October 12, 2016 - October 15, 2016

Discover the unexpected stories of #WesternSydney in this intimate multi-lingual and multi-generational storytelling show.

Through personal narratives and photographs, Who Speaks For Me? explores the vagaries of language – the powerlessness of those who do not have it, the nuances lost in translation, and the sometimes hilarious consequences of misunderstanding it.

These irresistible stories will be accompanied by rare photographs from private collections and will take the audience to the heart of the migrant’s journey.
