East Point Reserve
Love struck, Star struck, Struck down. STRUCK is a romance set in unstable times of change. STRUCK is a love affair between a young civilian girl in her isolated hometown and a fresh-faced Allied lover, with the odds against them and society frowning. In epic Romeo and Juliet style, this is a large scale, outdoor youth production set amongst the World War II ruins of Darwin. It is a meeting of difference utilising Break-Dance, Ballet, and Contemporary dance styles.

The Lawns, Frog Hollow Arts Centre, McMinn St, Darwin
In 1988 a group of over 60’s women was formed, filling a much-needed niche in Darwin’s performance groups. They grew to become the all singing, all dancing performance group: the Grey Panthers. That year also saw core artists of Tracks visiting the remote Indigenous community of Lajamanu for the first time where they established a strong connection with the Lajamanu Yawalyu Ceremonial Dancers.
