No Going Home Listen Party

This listen party will take place on the unceded land of the Gadigal people of the Eora nation. We acknowledge and pay our respects to the Traditional Owners of Country, and recognise that sovereignty was never ceded. Always was, always will be Indigenous land.

Sit down with a bite to eat and listen to the new audio drama adaptation, No Going Home, then enjoy us for our After Show Yarn, a discussion panel with creatives involved in the production, including author of the original short story, Marcus Waters and scriptwriter Blayne Welsh, hosted by Mikaela Ford.

Trigger Warning: This audio drama features themes and scenes that may be potentially triggering to listeners. These include discussions and depictions of mass murder and genocide. Viewer discretion is advised, always put yourself first.

No Going Home, set in colonial Australia, ultimately transcends time to consider how culture and spirit are disrupted and distorted by invasion through the lens of contentious family relations. Dundalli has been instilling fear in settlers for years as they continue to encroach ever further inland. Until Make-a-Light, the nephew of the frontier warrior, declares himself a warrior of God and dons the uniform of the enemy. The past and present of one family come into conversation with each other to comment on the centrality of culture and spirit, regardless of the shape they take.
