1 5 y separately published work icon Gudirr Gudirr Dalisa Pigram , Marrugeku Theatre Company , 2013 6930742 2013 single work drama Indigenous story

'Gudirr Gudirr lights a path from broken past to fragile present, and on to a future still in the making. Gudirr Gudirr calls a warning, the guwayi bird calls when the tide is turning — to miss the call is to drown. An intimate solo dance and video work performed by Dalisa Pigram, daughter of Broome. By turns hesitant, restless, resilient and angry, Gudirr Gudirr lights a path from a broken past through a fragile present and on to a future still in the making.' (Source: Marrugeku website)
