The national population percentage of Indigenous Australians is under 3%. However, in the Northern Territory it is closer to 30%. As a result, many Northern Territory people have direct contact with and are influenced by Indigenous cultures.

Tracks is a company that gives ”voice to Territory culture" and seeks ways to understand and celebrate the many Indigenous cultures that make up contemporary Australian culture. |
|
|
Since 1988 Tracks has developed a special way of working with traditional indigenous people living in selected remote communities. They have succeeded in building positive working relationships that are translated into highly respected performances. Tracks is the only non-Indigenous dance company that uses these relationships as a major foundation of the company’s work. |
|
|
Tracks has a particularly strong relationship with the remote Warlpiri community of Lajamanu, 950 km south-west of Darwin. Together they have developed works that integrate Warlpiri culture and performers into mainstream theatre works. |

Other residencies and performance projects have taken place in Lajamanu, Alice Springs, Groote Eylandt, the Tiwi Islands and Darwin.
