'In Urban Theatre Projects' Blak Box – Four Winds, elders and future leaders from Blacktown’s Aboriginal community invite audiences into a surround-sound listening pavilion, to hear stories and gain a deeper and broader understanding of contemporary Aboriginality.

'Four Winds is both a remembering of the past and a collective vision for the future. It features Elders Uncle Wes Marne and Aunty Edna Watson and teens Savarna Russell and Shaun Millwood as they engage each other in a dialogue that bridges generational divides. Four Winds features new music from songwoman Emma Donovan and violinist Eric Avery. The work is informal and inquisitive, sombre and funny, gentle and insistent, powerfully highlighting the urgent need for all their voices to be heard.' (Production summary)
