Marrugeku

Marrugeku is an Indigenous and intercultural dance company based in the remote community of Broome in the north of Western Australia. Combining dance, storytelling, installation art, video, song and spoken word, Marrugeku’s productions are co-created with artists from diverse backgrounds and art forms. Marrugeku is led by Co-Artistic Directors, Dalisa Pigram and Rachael Swain. Dalisa is a Broome born movement artist and a Yawuru/Bardi woman who is also proud of her Malay and Filipino heritage. Meanwhile Rachael is a New Zealand born director and dramaturg of Scottish and Irish descent. Together they facilitate collaborative processes with diverse artists and communities to explore the possibilities of intercultural expression, choreographic truth telling about our world and new interdisciplinary languages.
