about

Produced in Australia in 1999 by The Sydney Festival, French Street theatre company Plasticiens Volants and Mulwarr Dance Australia, the show toured throughout Europe in 2000.
This was a mobile performance experience punctuated with five fixed scenes. The story depicts the birth of the rainbow serpent, that of Man, then the animals and of nature and finishes with the revenge of the serpent.

Ngalyod is the name given by ‘Gunbalanya’ tribes (northern territories ) to the ‘rainbow serpent’. Considered as the creator of the aboriginal civilization, this serpent gave birth to the first tribes, reproduced the animals and created the plants and rocks. An ancient legend over 40,000 years old.

The hurricane that damaged the town of Darwin in 1974 was, for the aboriginals, a sign that ‘Ngalyod’ was displeased. Ever since, this serpent has been regularly represented in dances, chants and traditional paintings.
