QPAC: Gurril Storm Bird
18 June @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am AEST

Gather around the campfire in the forest to hear the story of Gurril, the young boy who came face to face with the rainbow serpent.
Celebrating the culture of the Gimuy Walubara Yidinji people of Cairns, Gurril Storm Bird recounts how Gurril learns a valuable lesson as he discovers just how powerful Gudju-Gudju is. Adapted from the prize-winning children’s picture book by Trevor (Bumi) Fourmile, this immersive new work features traditional song and movement and is created in collaboration with jarjum (child/ren) from Hymba Yumba Independent School (HYIS), Yidinji Traditional Owners and First Nations creatives.
